Chemistry - Carbonyl compounds Question with Solution | TestHub
List - I | List - II (Product or atleast one product) |
|---|---|
(P) Product | (1) One of the product liberates when treated with |
(Q) Product | (2) Nucleophilic addition or takes place during reaction |
(R) Product | (3) One of the product contains halogen |
(S) Product | (4) Baeyer Villiger oxidation reaction |
| (5) Cannizzaro's reaction |
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
* (P) (2): Acetaldehyde (CH₃CHO) undergoes Aldol condensation in the presence of NaOH and heat, which proceeds via nucleophilic addition.
* (Q) (1): Benzaldehyde (PhCHO) undergoes Cannizzaro's reaction to form benzoic acid (PhCOOH), which liberates CO₂ when treated with NaHCO₃.
* (R) (4): Reaction of PhCHO with -CPBA is a Baeyer-Villiger oxidation that converts the aldehyde into a phenyl formate ester.
* (S) (3): Acetaldehyde reacts with NaOH/I₂ via the Haloform reaction to produce iodoform (CHI₃), which contains halogen atoms.
