A) only\[C{{H}_{3}}COOC{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}\]
B) a mixture of \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH\]and EtOH
C) only \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH\]
D) only \[EtOH\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
\[\underset{\text{acetaldehyde}}{\mathop{2C{{H}_{3}}CHO}}\,\xrightarrow[\text{Tischenko}\,\text{reaction}]{\text{Al(O}{{\text{C}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}}{{\text{)}}_{\text{3}}}}\]\[\underset{\text{ethyl}\,\text{acetate}}{\mathop{\text{C}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\text{COOC}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{C}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}}}\,\]You need to login to perform this action.
