Butan-2-ol is a good example of this, with three different alkenes formed when it is dehydrated. When an alcohol is dehydrated, the -OH group and a hydrogen atom from the next carbon atom in the chain are removed. ... Hence, the dehydration of butan-2-ol leads to a mixture containing the following compounds: but-1-ene, but-2-ene.
but-2-ene is the major product.
