    The final product of the sequence of the following reaction is \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}OH\xrightarrow[\text{or}\,PCC/C{{H}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}]{Cu/573K}A\xrightarrow{Dil.\,NaOH}B\]

    A)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}\]    

    B)  \[C{{H}_{3}}\overset{OH}{\mathop{\overset{\mathbf{|}}{\mathop{CH}}\,}}\,-C{{H}_{2}}CHO\]

    C)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}-OH\]

    D)  \[C{{H}_{2}}=CH-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                                    \[\underset{Ethanol}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}}}\,-OH\xrightarrow[\text{or}\,\,PCC/C{{H}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}]{Cu/573K}C{{H}_{3}}CHO\] \[\xrightarrow[(Aldol\,condensation)]{Dil.\,NaOH}\underset{3-hydroxy\,butanal}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-\overset{OH}{\mathop{\overset{\mathbf{|}}{\mathop{CH}}\,}}\,-C{{H}_{2}}CHO}}\,\]
