CH 3 CN , CH 3 OH and C 6 H 5 OH do not give iodoform test because they don't have CH 3= overset underset||OC- group. Only CH 3 COCH 3 (acetone) gives positive iodoform test as it contains CH 3 CO group. underset textAcetoneCH 3 COCH 3+3 I 2+ NaOH longrightarrow underset overset textIodoform text(Yellow coloured solid)CHI 3
