(b)
Interpretation:
The allylic carbons in the given compound are to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Hydrocarbons are formed by carbon and hydrogen atom. These atoms form a bond with each other and with other atoms through the sharing of electrons. Alkenes have carbon-carbon double bonds in them. The allylic carbon atoms are carbon atoms which are bonded to a carbon atom that make the double bond with another carbon atom.
