Haloalkanes and Haloarenes
The treatment of alkyl chlorides with aqueous KOH leads to the formation of alcohols but in the presence of alcoholic KOH, alkenes are major products. Explain.
Consider the following reactions: (a) $$(CH_3)_3CCH(OH)CH_3\xrightarrow{conc.H_2SO_4}$$ (b) $$(CH_3)_2CHCH(Br)CH_3\xrightarrow{alc.KOH}$$ (c) $$(CH_3)_2CHCH(Br)CH_3\xrightarrow{(CH_3)_3CO^{\ominus}K^{\oplus}}$$ (d) $$(CH_3)_2\underset{\,\,\,\,OH}{\underset{|}{C}}-CH_2-CHO\xrightarrow{\Delta}$$ Which of these reaction(s) will not produce Saytzeff product?
Hence, the correct option is $$\text{A}$$
