A Carbonyl compound \(\mathrm{X}\) when reacted with Methyl magnesium bromide followed by hydrolysis gave product \(\mathrm{Y}\). When \(\mathrm{Y}\) is heated with \(\mathrm{Cu}\) at \(573 \mathrm{~K}\), it gave \(\mathrm{Z}\) (2- Methylbut-2-ene) as one of the products. Identify \(\mathrm{X}\).
- A Pentan-3-one
- B Pentan-2-one
- C Butanone
- D Butanal
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Butanone
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The reaction of a carbonyl compound \(\mathrm{X}\) with \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\mathrm{MgBr}\) followed by hydrolysis yields an alcohol \(\mathrm{Y}\). Heating alcohol \(\mathrm{Y}\) with \(\mathrm{Cu}\) at \(573 \mathrm{~K}\) is a dehydrogenation reaction for primary and secondary…
