Question

Consider the following reaction sequence The correct statements about Z are I. It gives yellow precipitate with I ₂ and NaOH solution II. It undergoes disproportionation reaction in the presence of concentrated NaOH solution III. It undergoes wolff-Kishner reduction IV. It forms red precipitate with Fehling's reagent

Quantrex Academy · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. I & III only

Since ' Z ' is a methyl ketone, it gives positive iodoform test and gives a yellow precipitate with I ₂ and NaOH . Aldehydes and ketones undergo walff-kishner reduction to give the corresponding hydrocarbon. Thus, I and III are correct.,
