    \[2C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\underset{O}{\mathop{||}}\,}{\mathop{C}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}\underset{{{H}^{+}}}{\mathop{\xrightarrow{Mg/Hg}}}\,\] Product, product in the reaction is [RPMT 2003]

    A)                 \[{{H}_{3}}C\ \ -\overset{\overset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\mathop{|\ \ \ \ \,\,}}\,}{\mathop{\underset{\underset{OH}{\mathop{\ |\ \,\ \ \ }}\,\ }{\mathop{C\ -}}\,}}\,\overset{\overset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\mathop{|\,\,\,\ \ \ \ \ }}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}{\mathop{\underset{\underset{OH\,\,}{\mathop{|\,\,\,\ \ \ \ }}\,}{\mathop{C-C}}\,{{H}_{3}}}}\,\]   

    B)                 \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\underset{O}{\mathop{||}}\,}{\mathop{C}}\,-O-\underset{\underset{O}{\mathop{||}}\,}{\mathop{C}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    C)                 \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\underset{OH}{\mathop{|\ \ \ }}\,}{\mathop{CH}}\,-\underset{\underset{OH}{\mathop{|\ \ \ }}\,}{\mathop{CH}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}\]     

    D)                 None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[\underset{\text{Acetone}}{\mathop{2C{{H}_{3}}-CO-C{{H}_{3}}}}\,\underset{{{H}_{2}}O}{\mathop{\xrightarrow{Mg/Hg}}}\,\underset{(\text{Pinacol})}{\mathop{{{H}_{3}}C-\underset{_{OH\,\,}^{\,|}\,}{\overset{_{\,|}^{C{{H}_{3}}}\,}{\mathop{C\,\,\,-\,\,\,}}}\,\underset{_{OH}^{\,|}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}{\overset{_{\,|}^{C{{H}_{3}}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}{\mathop{C-C{{H}_{3}}}}}\,}}\,\]
