An optically active alkyl bromide X (\[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{13}}Br\]) upon treatment with ethanolic KOH solution forms two alkenes Y and Z with their molecular formula (\[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}\]). Y and Z are positional isomers. Z upon treatment with cold, dilute alkaline \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\] solution gives a meso-diol. Hence, X is |
