Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{R}-\mathrm{COOH} \stackrel{\text (i) \mathrm{B}_2 \mathrm{H}_6}{\longrightarrow}\) Product (ii) \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} / \mathrm{H}^{+}\) In the above reaction, when \(R-\mathrm{COOH}\) is reduced by \(\mathrm{B}_2 \mathrm{H}_6\), followed by acidic hydrolysis;
