Compound A, C8H10O , is found to react with NaOI (produced by reacting Y with NaOH) and yields a yellow precipitate with characteristic smell. A and Yare respectively (A) Option 1

(B)

(C)

(D)

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Option (a) is secondary alcohol which on oxidation gives phenylmethyl ketone (Acetophenone). This on reaction with I2 and NaOH form iodoform and sodium benzoate. (Iodoform Test). <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="Solution" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/q/nta/c-38ndu6kebqda.png" />
