Answer:
B
Explanation:
The appropriate diagram of the question is shown in the first image attached below.
From the diagram, we see the reaction of Cyclopentanol taking place under Tscl pyridine. We are to show the reaction mechanism and determine from the options, which appropriate product fits in.
So, from the reaction, the hydroxyl substituent reacts with Tscl where cl is being lost. This process is followed by an attack of N substituent on the pyridine with the Hydrogen atom and cleaves off for the structure to form a stable structure. The stereochemistry of the compound remains unchanged and it maintains its stick formula.
Thus, X is the appropriate and the correct product.
