Solution
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{CH3 - CH - CH3 ->[Alc{.} KOH, \Delta][Dehydrohalogenation] \underset{Propene}{CH3 - CH = CH2} ->[HBr][peroxide effect] \underset{1-bromopropane}{CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - Br}}\\
|\phantom{....................................................................................................................}\\
\ce{\underset{2-Bromopropane}{Br}}\phantom{...................................................................................................................}
\end{array}\]
