A) ketone compound -
B) a long chain fatty acid
C) olefin compound
D) epoxide
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
This is also a mean of preparing alkene where the position of the double bond is definite. In Wittig reaction, aldehyde \[(-CHO)\] and ketone react with methylene triphenyl phosphine \[[{{({{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}})}_{3}}P=C{{H}_{2}}]\] to give alkene. \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO+{{({{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}})}_{3}}P=C{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}\] \[\underset{\Pr opene}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-CH}}\,=\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} triphenyl\,\,phosphine \\ oxide \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}+{{({{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}})}_{3}}P=O}}\,\]You need to login to perform this action.
