What is dehydrohalogenation? State the rule for the formation of the preferred product of dehydrohalogenation.

दीर्घउत्तर

उत्तर

  1. Dehydrohalogenation reaction: When an alkyl halide having at least one β-hydrogen is boiled with an alcoholic solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH), it undergoes elimination of hydrogen atom from β-carbon and halogen atom from α-carbon resulting in the formation of an alkene. As hydrogen and halogen are removed in this reaction, it is termed a dehydrohalogenation reaction.
  2. Saytzeff’s rule:
    Statement -
    “In dehydrohalogenation reaction, the preferred product is that alkene which has a greater number of alkyl groups attached to doubly bonded carbon atoms.”
