JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 -8.1. Aldehydes and ketones
The unsaturated ether acidic hydrolysis produces carbonyl compounds as shown below :-

Based on this, predict the solution / reagent that will help to distinguish "P" and "Q" obtained in the following reaction.

- A Lucas reagent
- B 2,4 - DNP reagent
- C Saturated \(NaHSO_{3}\) solution
- D Fehling solution
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Fehling solution
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
'P' and 'Q' can be differentiated by Fehling's test. P gives positive Fehling test Q gives negative Fehling test
