Explanation:
Dehydrohalogenation reactions occurs as elimination reactions through the following mechanism:
Step 1: A strong base(usually KOH) removes a slightly acidic hydrogen proton from the alkyl halide.
Step 2: The electrons from the broken hydrogen‐carbon bond are attracted toward the slightly positive carbon (carbocation) atom attached to the chlorine atom. As these electrons approach the second carbon, the halogen atom breaks free.
However, elimination will be slower in the exit of Hydrogen atom at the C2 and C3 because of the steric hindrance by the methyl group.
Elimination of the hydrogen from the methyl group is easier.
Thus, the major product will A
