\(A \xrightarrow[\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{O}^{+}]{\mathrm{AlH}(\mathrm{i}-\mathrm{Bu})_2} \text { Pent-3-enal }\)

  1. A Pentanenitrile
  2. B Pent-3-enenitrile
  3. C Pent-3-en-1-amine
  4. D Pent-3-ynenitrile
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Pent-3-enenitrile

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{~N} \xrightarrow[\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{O}^{+}]{\mathrm{AlI}(i-\mathrm{Bu})_2}\)
Pent-3-enenitrile
\(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CHO}\)
Pent-3-enal
