Alcohols Phenols And Ethers Question 74

Question: In which of the following reactions hydrogen gas will not be evolved-

Options:

A) $ CH_3-CH_2-OH\xrightarrow{Na} $

B) $ CH_3-CH_2-OH\xrightarrow{K} $

C) $ CH_3-\underset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}}}H-OH\xrightarrow{Al} $

D) $ CH_3-\underset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}}}H-OH\xrightarrow{CH_3MgBr} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] $ CH_3-\underset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}}}H-\overset{-}{\mathop{O}}-\overset{+}{\mathop{H}}\xrightarrow{\overset{-}{\mathop{C}}H_3\overset{+}{\mathop{M}}gBr}CH_4 $ (Major product) Acid-base reaction takes place.
