NEET Chemistry Elimination Reactions Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Major product in dehydrohalogenation of 2-bromopentane | (i) Pent-1-ene |
| (b) Zaitsev's rule | (ii) Alkene with more alkyl groups |
| (c) Beta-elimination | (iii) Formation of alkenes |
| (d) S N 2 mechanism | (iv) Inversion of configuration |
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the Zaitsev's rule, the major product of dehydrohalogenation is the alkene with more alkyl groups attached to the double bond, which is pent-2-ene from 2-bromopentane. Beta-elimination refers to the removal of a beta-hydrogen atom, leading to alkene formation.
