Major product: (a) (b) (c) (d)
Answer
A
Explanation
Here, the LG is 3 - N Me , which is highly with drawing and hence elimination takes place with less substituted alkene. This reaction occurs as when the hydroxyl ion reacts with positive part of the reactant, the bond is broken and will form a double bond as in option (a). The diagram is given below:
