The major product formed in the following reaction is: NaOCH3 (1 eq) Heat. The major product of the following reaction is: CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3 + KOH, CH3OH heat.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for the major products formed from two different organic reactions involving reagents. The user needs to identify the correct product structures based on the provided reactants and conditions.
Answer
(a) and (b) are the major products respectively.
The major products are (a) and (b) respectively for reactions 97 and 98.
Answer for screen readers
The major products are (a) and (b) respectively for reactions 97 and 98.
More Information
Both reactions are elimination reactions resulting in the most stable alkenes. The stability is achieved via hyperconjugation and, in reaction 98's case, conjugation.
Tips
A common mistake is not identifying the reaction conditions as favoring elimination, leading to incorrect assumptions about substitution products.
