A) Trimethyl carbinol
B) Ethanol
C) Propanol
D) Methanol
E) Iso-propanol
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Reactivity order of alcohols towards \[ZnC{{l}_{2}}\] and cone. \[HCl\] (Lucas reagent) is tertiary alcohol > sec alcohol > primary alcohol Trimethyl carbinol is\[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\overset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\mathop{\underset{\mathbf{|}}{\overset{\mathbf{|}}{\mathop{C}}}\,}}}\,-OH\]. It is a tertiary alcohol, so reacts readily with anhy.\[ZnC{{l}_{2}}\] and concentrated\[HCl\].You need to login to perform this action.
