Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The major organic product obtained from the given sequence of reactions is compound III. The starting material is an alkene, which undergoes catalytic hydrogenation, adding two hydrogen atoms across the double bond to form an alkane (compound I). The alkane is then reacted with excess Cl2 and UV light to introduce two chloride atoms onto the molecule (compound II). Finally, compound II is reacted with NaOH and heat to undergo an elimination reaction, resulting in the formation of a new carbon-carbon double bond and elimination of HCl to yield compound III.
