NEET Chemistry Elimination Reactions Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) E2 elimination | (i) Major product is the least substituted alkene |
| (b) Zaitsev's Rule | (ii) Involves the formation of a carbocation |
| (c) SN2 reaction | (iii) Involves the removal of a β-hydrogen |
| (d) SN1 reaction | (iv) Major product is the most substituted alkene |
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-iv, b-i, c-ii, d-iii
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In elimination reactions, E2 involves the removal of a β-hydrogen leading to alkene formation, while Zaitsev's Rule states that the more substituted alkene is the major product. SN2 reactions typically do not form carbocations, which is a characteristic of SN1 reactions.
