C
Solution:
Question Explanation:
Identify the final major product ' ' formed through a sequence of organic reactions starting from styrene.
Concept: This question is based on
1. Oxymercuration-Demercuration of alkenes
2. Oxidation by PCC
3. Aldol Condensation
Solution:
1. Oxymercuration-Demercuration: Styrene reacts to form 1-phenylethanol (P) via Markovnikov addition. 2. Oxidation: PCC oxidizes P to acetophenone (Q).
3. Aldol Condensation: Self-condensation of Q in basic medium yields the alpha, beta-unsaturated ketone (R).
