JEE Main 2021 (27 Aug, Shift 2) Chemistry Q41: Ethers

Question

The major product of the following reaction, if it occurs by $\mathrm{S_N2}$ mechanism is :
[reaction drawn: a benzene ring bearing OH, plus a skeletal bromo-substituted chain drawn with a C=C double bond, with $\mathrm{K_2CO_3}$ / acetone over the arrow]

Accepted Answer

Option 2: [structure: benzene ring - O - line - line, then a C=C double bond whose end carbon forks into two plain line substituents]

Answer

[structure: a carbon bearing two plain line substituents is bonded both to an O-attached benzene ring (hanging below it) and to a two-bond chain that leads to an O attached to a second benzene ring (at right)]

Answer

[structure: benzene ring - O - line - line, then a C=C double bond whose end carbon forks into two plain line substituents]

Answer

[structure: benzene ring - O - a carbon bearing two plain line substituents (one up, one down) and a line leading to a C=C double bond at right]

Answer

[structure: a carbon bearing a double-bond line (upper left) and a plain line (lower left), then a two-bond chain leading to O attached to a benzene ring (at right)]
