A) \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH\]
B) \[C{{H}_{3}}OH\]
C) \[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}\]
D) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Ethyl alcohol reacts with phosgene gives diethyl carbonate which is not poisonous. \[\begin{align} & \underset{ethyl\,\,alcohol}{\mathop{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}-OH}}\,+\underset{phosgene}{\mathop{Cl-\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-Cl}}\,+HO-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{3}} \\ & \downarrow -2HCl \\ & \underset{diethyl\,\,carbonate}{\mathop{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}O-\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-O-{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}}}\, \\ \end{align}\]You need to login to perform this action.
