A) 2-butanal
B) 3-hydroxybutanal
C) 3-formyl-2-propanol
D) 4-oxo-2-propanol
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
\[HC=CH\xrightarrow[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}]{HgS{{O}_{4}}}C{{H}_{3}}-CHO\xrightarrow{aldol}\] \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{3}{\mathop{\overset{OH}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{CH}}\,}}\,}}\,-\underset{2}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,-\underset{1}{\mathop{CHO}}\,\](3-hydroxy butanal)You need to login to perform this action.
