Give the product, the conformation, and indicate the specific hydrogen that is removed
cis-1-t-butyl-4-chlorocyclohexane with KOC(CH3)3 in THF
cis-1-t-butyl-4-chlorocyclohexane will undergo E2 animation. E2 mechanism will undergo by anti periplanar elimation of atom, that is atom in axial postion which are adjusant to each other are elimnated. In cis-1-t-butyl-4-chlorocyclohexane tert butyl group will be in equatorial postion due to steric hinderance where as chloro group will be in axial postion therefore adjusant axial hydrogen Ha will be eliminated as shown below due to anti periplanar elimation
