Which of the following bases would give the best yield for the substitution product when reacted with 2-chloropropane?

A.CH3COO–✓ Correct

B.OH–

C.NH2

D.CH3CH2O–

Explanation

- - 2 O H, N H and - 3 2 CH CH O can act as a strong base. Therefore 2 E product is also expected. So, CH3COO– will give the best yield for the substitution product. Assertion and Reason Type Questions (A) If both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion. (B) If both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of assertion. (C) If the assertion is true but the reason is false. (D) If the reason is true but the assertion is false.
