Question

Identify$(X), (Y)$ and $(Z)$ in the given reaction.
$CH_{3}COOH_{3} \xrightarrow[heat]{I_{2}+NaOH} X \xrightarrow[heat]{Ag} Y \xrightarrow[heat]{H_{2}SO_{4}/HgSO_{4}}$ $Z$

• A. $X= CHI_{3}. Y=CH_{3}CHO, Z = HCHO $
• B. $X= CHI_{3}, Y= CH_{3}OH, Z= CH_{3}CHO$
• C. $X= CHI_{3}, Y= CH \equiv CH, Z= CH_{3}CHO$
• D. $X= CH_{3}COCI_{3}, Y= CH_{2}=CH_{2}, Z = CH_{3}CHO$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Correct answer is (c) $X= CHI_{3}, Y= CH \equiv CH, Z= CH_{3}CHO$
