A) \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} || \\ O \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-COOH\]
B) \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-COOH\]
C) \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH\]
D) None of these
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
\[\underset{acetyl\text{ }chloride}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} || \\ O \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-Cl}}\,+KCN\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} || \\ O \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-CN\] \[\xrightarrow[{}]{{{H}_{2}}O}\underset{pyruvic\text{ }acid}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} || \\ O \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-COOH}}\,\]You need to login to perform this action.
