A) A-Ethanol, X-Acetaldehyde, Y-Butanone, Z-Hydrazone
B) A-Methoxymethane, X-Ethanoic acid, Y-Acetate ion, Z-hydrazine
C) A-Methoxymethane, X-Ethanol, Y-Ethanoic acid, Z-Semicarbazide
D) A-Ethanal, X-Ethanol, Y-But-2-enal, Z-Semicarbazone
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Since 'A' gives positive silver mirror test therefore, it must be an aldehyde or \[\alpha -\]Hydroxyketone. Reaction with semicarbazide indicates that A can be an aldehyde or ketone. Reaction with \[O{{H}^{-}}\]i.e., aldol condensation (by assuming alkali to be dilute) indicates that A is aldehyde as aldol reaction of ketones is reversible and carried out in special apparatus. These indicates option (4). \[\underset{(x)}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}OH}}\,\xrightarrow[573\,K]{Cu}\underset{(A)}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-CHO}}\,\xrightarrow[\Delta ]{{{[Ag{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}]}^{+}},O{{H}^{-}}}\] \[C{{H}_{3}}-COOH\]You need to login to perform this action.
