Answer the question on basis of passage given below :
A ketone \([A]\) which undergoes haloform reaction gives compound \([B]\) on reduction. Compound
\([B]\) on heating with sulphuric acid gives compound \([C]\) which forms monozonide \([D]\). The
compound \([D]\) on hydrolysis in the presence of zinc dust gives compound \([E]\). 
Compound \([E]\) on oxidation gives \(C _2 H _4 O _2\) [F]
Compound \([ F ]\left( C _2 H _4 O _2\right)\) on treatment with chlorine, in the presence of small amount of red phosphorus, gives :

  1. A \(CH _3 CH _2- Cl\)
  2. B \(CH _3 COCl\)
  3. C \(ClCH _2 COOH\)
  4. D \(ClCH _2 CH _2- Cl\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution
