Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The given sequence of reactions involves the dehydrohalogenation of 1-bromo-2-methylheptane using strong base (potassium tert-butoxide) which eliminates a hydrogen and a bromine atom to form an alkene. Since the bromine and the hydrogen atoms are anti to each other, the product formed is E isomer. Hence, the major organic product obtained is (E)-2-heptene.
