Give the IUPAC names of moleculesCH3H3C-CH-CH2 CH-CH-CH3Br4. A student was asked to prepare an alkene X in high yield using any alcohol as starting materialCH3CH;-C--CH=CH2CH3XHe chose 3, 3-dimethylbutan-2-ol (XI) and carried out a dehydration reaction. He was howeverhorrified to note that the only alkene obtained was XII.CH3ОНCH3conc. H,SO4CH-CH3CH;-C=C-CH3heatCH3CH3XIXIIi) Explain what went wrong here, and why X could not be formed from 3, 3-dimethylbutan-2-ol. Usestructures to help support your answer.ii) Give an equation to show a much better method for preparing X in high yield.
