Answer:
2-methylene propylbenzene
Explanation:
The Wittig Reaction is a reaction that converts aldehydes and ketones into alkenes through reaction with a phosphorus ylide.
The ketone in this case is 1-phenylpropan-1-one. The provided phosphonium ylide is shown in the image attached. The reaction involves;
i) alkylation
ii) addition
The product of the major organic product of the reaction is 2-methylene propylbenzene.
<u>Answer:</u> The outermost valence electron enters the p orbital.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Valence electrons are defined as the electrons which are present in outer most orbital of an atom.
Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table having 16 electrons.
Electronic configuration of sulfur atom is
The number of valence electrons are 2 + 4 = 6
These 6 electrons enter s-orbital and p-orbital but the outermost valence electron will enter the p-orbital.
Hence, the outermost valence electron enters p orbital.
