Compound A and compound B are constitutional isomers with molecular formula C3H7Cl. When compound A is treated with sodium methoxide, a substitution reaction predominates. When compound B is treated with sodium methoxide, an elimination reaction predominates. Required:
Propose structures A and B.

Compound A and compound B are constitutional isomers with molecular formula C3H7Cl.

When compound A is treated with sodium methoxide, a substitution reaction predominates. When compound B is treated with sodium methoxide, an elimination reaction predominates.

Explanation:

Constitutional isomers are the one which differs in the structural formula.

When compound A is treated with sodium methoxide, a substitution reaction predominates.

That means sodium methoxide is a strong base and a strong nucleophile.

But when it reacts with primary alkyl halides it forms a substitution product and when it reacts with secondary alkyl halide it forms mostly elimination product.

The reaction and the structures of A and B are shown below:

chemical digestion occurs in the stomach were hcl and pepsin forms chyme, the mouth in which salivary amylase breaks down starch to form bolus, and the small intestine specifically the duodenum.
