Ah, tertiary alkyl halides give elimination reaction more, beta hydrogen is there na, E2 patha easy ho jata hai, ether banne se pehle hi alkene bana dete hain. My lab mein bhi, isopropyl toh theek tha, but neopentyl bromide ne bada jhala diya, yield bahut kam aaya. Road pe bhi, shortcut leke sometimes you reach late—same chemistry hai, sirf brute force se kaam nahi chalta, thoda sochna padta hai ki which halide will listen!
