An unknown alkyl halide reacts with alcoholic KOH to produce a hydrocarbon . Ozonolysis of the hydrocarbon affords one mole of propionaldehyde and one mole of formaldehyde. Suggest which organic structure among the following is the correct structure of the above alkyl halide (A)?

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

C4H8 is CH3CH2CH = CH2 as it gives propionaldehyde & formaldehyde on ozonolysis. So, CH3CH2CH = CH2 is produced by dehydro halogenation of CH3CH2CH2CH2Br(A)
