The reaction of acetone with \[PC{{l}_{5}}\] gives

A)  \[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{2}}Cl\]    

B)  \[C{{H}_{3}}COCHC{{l}_{2}}\]

C)   

D)  \[ClC{{H}_{2}}COC{{H}_{2}}Cl\]

Correct Answer: C

Solution :

                Acetone   reacts   with  \[PC{{l}_{5}}\]   to   give 2, 2-dichloropropane.                                 \[\underset{2,\,2-dichloropropane}{\mathop{\underset{Cl}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{\overset{Cl}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-C-C{{H}_{3}}}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,+POC{{l}_{3}}}}\,\]
