A) Nucleophilic substitution reaction
B) Elimination reaction
C) Both nucleophilic substitution and elimination reaction
D) Rearrangement
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Dehydrohalogenation of an alkyl halide on presence of alcoholic potash is an example of elimination reaction. \[R-C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}-Cl+\underset{\text{alc}\text{.}}{\mathop{KOH}}\,\xrightarrow{\Delta }\]\[RCH=C{{H}_{2}}+KCl+{{H}_{2}}O\]You need to login to perform this action.
