Identity Z in the sequence of reactions :
CH3 - (CH2)3 - O - CH2CH3
(CH3)2CH2 - O - CH2CH3
CH3(CH2)4 - O - CH3
CH3CH2 - CH (CH3) - O - CH2CH3
As we learnt in
Antimarkovnikov Rules / Peroxide effect / Kharash effect -
In presence of peroxide addition of HBr to unsymetrical alkene takes place opposite to Markovnikov's Rule.
- wherein
Y = CH3—CH2—CH2—CH2—Br
Z = CH3—CH2—CH2—CH2—O—CH2—CH3
Option 1)
CH3 - (CH2)3 - O - CH2CH3

this is the incorrect option
Option 3)
CH3(CH2)4 - O - CH3
this is the incorrect option
Option 4)
CH3CH2 - CH (CH3) - O - CH2CH3
this is the incorrect option
