Question

Which one of the following does not form sodium bisulphite addition product with sodium bisulphite solution? (A)  CH2O  (B)  C6H5COCH3  (C)  C6H5CHO  (D)  CH3CHO

Acetophenone (C6H5COCH3) does not give addition product with sodium bisulphite (NaHSO3) solution. This is because, two bulkier groups are attached with the carbonyl carbon. These groups decrease the reactivity of carbonyl carbon.

$C H_{2} O$

$C_{6} H_{5} COC H_{3}$

$C_{6} H_{5} C H O$

$C H_{3} C H O$

Acetophenone $(C_{6} H_{5} COC H_{3})$ does not give addition product with sodium bisulphite $(N a H S O_{3})$ solution. This is because, two bulkier groups are attached with the carbonyl carbon. These groups decrease the reactivity of carbonyl carbon.
