    Identify the set of reagents/reaction conditions X and y in the following set of transformations

    A) X = dilute aqueous \[NaOH\] \[Y=HBr\]/acetic acid

    B) X = concentrated alcoholic\[NaOH\]\[Y=HBr\]/acetic acid

    C) X = dilute aqueous \[NaOH\] \[Y=B{{r}_{2}}/CHC{{l}_{3}}\]

    D) X = concentrated aqueous \[NaOH\]\[Y=B{{r}_{2}}/CHC{{l}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{2}}Br\]
    \[\xrightarrow[80{}^\circ C]{Alc\cdot NaOH(X)}C{{H}_{3}}-CH=C{{H}_{2}}\]
    \[\xrightarrow{HBr(Y)}C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  Br \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CH}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}\]
    Step 1 Haloalkanes on reaction with alcoholic \[NaOH\]undergoes, elimination reaction to give alkenes.
    Step 2 The formed alkene then reacts with \[HBr\]to give monobrominated product. This product is in accordance markonwnikoff addition.
