Q. In the reaction Ethanol $\xrightarrow{ PI _{3}} A \xrightarrow{ KCN } B \xrightarrow{ H _{3} O ^{+}} C$ C may be:

Aldehydes Ketones and Carboxylic Acids

Solution:

$CH _{3} CH _{2} OH \xrightarrow{ PI _{3}} \underset{(A)}{CH _{3} CH _{2} I} \xrightarrow{ KCN } \underset{(B)}{CH _{3} CH _{2} CN}A \xrightarrow[{H_{3}O^{+}}]{HOH } \underset{(C)}{CH_{2}CH_{2}COOH}$
