Treatment of 2-bromo-2-methylbutane with sodium ethoxide in ethanol at 70^ C gives a mixture of two products X ₁ and X ₂ through one step processes. The energy profile diagrams of the two processes are shown below.

Options

  1. AProduct X ₁ is 2-methyl-1-butene.
  2. BProduct X₂ is formed faster than X₁ .
  3. CIf the same reaction is carried out using potassium tertbutoxide in tertbutanol at 75^ C , the major product w
  4. DIn the reaction using sodium ethoxide in ethanol large amount of 2-ethoxy-2-methylbutane is formed.

Correct answer

C. If the same reaction is carried out using potassium tertbutoxide in tertbutanol at 75^ C , the major product w
