1-phenyl-2-chloropropane on treating with alc. KOH gives mainly.A. 1-phenyl propeneB. 2-phenyl propeneC. 1-phenylpropan-2-olD. 1-phenyl-propan-1-ol
The reaction of 1-phenyl-2-chloropropane (also known as α-chloroethylbenzene) with alcoholic potassium hydroxide (alc. KOH) is an example of an E2 elimination reaction, where the chloride ion is eliminated along with a hydrogen atom from the adjacent carbon. This results in the formation of an alkene.
The major product obtained from this reaction would be:
A. 1-phenyl propene
So, the correct answer is A. 1-phenyl propene.
