    Elimination of bromine from 2-bromobutane results in the formation of     AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2005

    A) predominantly 2-butyne

    B) predominantly 1 ?butene

    C) ppredominantly 2-butene

    D) equimolar mixture of 1 and 2-butene

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  Br \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CHC{{H}_{3}}}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{\oplus }{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CHC{{H}_{3}}}}\,\xrightarrow[-{{H}^{+}}]{{}}\] \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  less\text{ }substituted \\  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,II \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CH}}\,=C{{H}_{2}}+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  more\text{ }substituted \\  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,I \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}CH=CHC{{H}_{3}}}}\,\] Stability of\[I>II\]hence I is predominant.
