Question

The molecular ion in the mass spectrum of 2-methyl-1-pentene appears at m/z 84. Propose a structural formula for the prominent peak at m/z 69. You do not have to consider stereochemistry. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one. Do not use the square brackets tool in your answer.
