A) glyceraldehyde
B) allyl alcohol
C) formic acid
D) acetic acid
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Glycerol at \[530\text{ }K\]reacts with oxalic acid to produce allyl alcohol. \[\underset{\text{Glycerol dioxalate}}{\mathop{\underset{\underset{C{{H}_{2}}OH}{\overset{CHOOC}{\mathop{|}}}\,}{\overset{C{{H}_{2}}OOC)}{\mathop{|}}}\,}}\,\xrightarrow[(-2\,\,C{{O}_{2}})]{}\underset{\text{Allyl Alcohol}}{\mathop{\underset{\underset{C{{H}_{2}}OH}{\overset{CH}{\mathop{|}}}\,}{\overset{C{{H}_{2}}}{\mathop{||}}}\,}}\,\]You need to login to perform this action.
