An alkyl halide with molecular formula C6H13Br on dehydrohalogenation gives two isomeric alkenes X and Y with molecular formula C6H12. On reductive ozonolysis X and Y gave four compounds CH3COCH3, CH3CHO, CH3CH2CHO and (CH3)2CHCHO. The alkyl halide is
  1. 4-bromo-2-methylpentane
  2. 3-bromo-2-methylpentane
  3. 2-bromo-2, 3-dimethylbutane
  4. 2, 2-dimethyl-1-bromobutane

Answer

(B) 3-bromo-2-methylpentane
