- ACH 3 CH 2 CH = CH - CHO
- BCH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CHO
- CCH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CHO
Correct answer
B. CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CHO
Step-by-step solution
OXO PROCESS (Hydroformylation) is the addition of a hydrogen atom and a formyl group to the molecule of a compound containing a double bond by reaction with hydrogen and carbon monoxide, the chief product being one or more aldehydes. CH 3 - CH 2 - CH = CH 2 → Rh   catalyst H 2 / CO CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CHO
