Which of the following compounds on reaction with Grignard reagent followed by hydrolysis forms secondary alcohol?
- A \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CHO}\)
- B \(\mathrm{HCHO}\)
- C \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{COCH}_3\)
- D \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COCH}_3\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CHO}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Aldehydes (except formaldehyde) on reaction with Grignard reagent followed by hydrolysis forms secondary alcohol.
\(\therefore \mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CHO}\) forms secondary alcohol.
\(\therefore \mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CHO}\) forms secondary alcohol.
