Provide the product for the following reaction?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The reaction appears to be a substitution reaction where a leaving group is replaced by an incoming nucleophile. The products are shown as two different molecules with different connectivity, indicating that some sort of bond-breaking and bond-forming has occurred. Comparing the two products, it appears that one carbon has undergone a change in its connectivity (it has lost two bonds and gained two bonds), while the other carbons remain the same. This suggests that the reaction has occurred with one molecule as the nucleophile and the other as the electrophile. Looking at the choices, only product II shows a change in the connectivity of one carbon, while all other options show no change or multiple changes. Therefore, product II is the best choice.
