Q. Which does not react with $I_{2}$ & $N a O H$

Ethyl Alcohol

Acetaldehyde

Acetone

Propanol

$C H_{3} C H_{2} O H - & C H_{3} CO -$ groups react with $I_{2}$ and $N a O H$ to give Haloform (Iodoform Reaction) $C H_{3} C H_{2} - C H_{2} - O H$ (propanol) Lacks this grouping therefore does not react.
