The option D is the product that is not possible.
Explanation:
- Dehydration is the process by which reagent pulls out a molecule of water from the compound, resulting in a double bond in the compound.
- The given molecule is a tertiary alcohol molecule.
- This means as the proton of the reagent protonates the hydroxyl group and takes out a molecule of water, a tertiary carbonation is formed.
- Tertiary carbonations are very stable, so will be maintaining SN1 process.
- This will lead to formation of double bonds along any of the 1st three options of the question.
- The last product of the option needs to form a secondary carbonation which is much less stable than tertiary Carbo cations which isn't fesable.
- So the last compound isn't a dehydration product of the given compound.
