Hydrolysis of an alkyl bromide $\mathrm{X}\left(\mathrm{C}_5 \mathrm{H}_{11} \mathrm{Br}\right)$ follows first order kinetics. Reaction of X with Mg in dry ether followed by treatment of $\mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O}$ gave Y . What is Y ?




Solution

Hydrolysis of an alkyl bromide $\mathrm{C}_5 \mathrm{H}_{11} \mathrm{Br}$ follow first order kinetics it mean alkyl will be stable carbocation so possible structure will be
