Which of the following compounds will not give Iodoform reaction?
- A Ethanol
- B Isobutyl alcohol
- C 3-methyl-2-butanone
- D Propan-2-ol
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Isobutyl alcohol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The iodoform test is given by compounds containing the \(CH_{3}CO-\) group or the \(CH_{3}CH(OH)-\) group. Ethanol is \(CH_{3}CH_{2}OH\), which contains the \(CH_{3}CH(OH)-\) group. It gives a positive iodoform test. Isobutyl alcohol is \((CH_{3})_{2}CHCH_{2}OH\). This structure…
