C. C and D Only
Step-by-step solution
Analyzing each reaction for alcohol production:
Reaction A: produces formaldehyde, not alcohol.
Reaction B: produces acetic acid, not alcohol.
Reaction C: tert-butyl compound undergoes oxidation to produce tert-butyl alcohol as the primary product.
Reaction D: produces methanol (CH₃OH), a primary alcohol.
Reaction E: The diene compound with produces vicinal diol, which is technically an alcohol but not a simple monoalcohol.
The reactions that predominantly produce alcohols as main products are C and D.
Reaction A: produces formaldehyde, not alcohol.
Reaction B: produces acetic acid, not alcohol.
