The answer is neopentane will be formed.
That is when dimethyl zinc reacts with tert-butyl chloride, then neopentane will be formed.
The reaction can be shown as follows:
C(CH₃)₃Cl + (CH₃)₂Zn----->C(CH₃)₄ + (CH₃)Zn(Cl)
So, then dimethyl zinc reacts with tert-butyl chloride, then neopentane and methylzinc chloride will be formed.
