185.
Aldehydes other than formaldehyde react with Grignard reagent to give addition products which on hydrolysis give
A
tertiary alcohols
B
secondary alcohols
C
primary alcohols
D
carboxylic acids
Answer :
secondary alcohols
Formaldehyde forms primary alcohol while all other aldehydes form secondary alcohols on reaction with Grignard's reagent followed by hydrolysis.
186.
An organic compound $$X$$ having molecular formula $${C_5}{H_{10}}O$$ yields phenyl hydrazone and gives negative response to the iodoform test and Tollen's test. It produces $$n$$ - pentane on reduction. $$X$$ could be
A
pentanal
B
2 - pentanone
C
3 - pentanone
D
$$n$$ - amyl alcohol
Answer :
3 - pentanone
Since, the compound $$X$$ yields phenyl hydrazone and gives negative response to the iodoform test and Tollen's test , it must contain a $$C=O$$ group but is neither a methyl ketone nor an aldehyde. The structure of $$X$$ could be
having molecular formula $${C_5}{H_{10}}O.$$
187. \[\xrightarrow{{{H}^{+}}}X,\] most likely the compound $$X$$ is
A
B
C
D
Answer :
Reaction of 4, 4 - dialkylcyclohexadienone with an acid to form phenol with the migration of one of the alkyl groups to the adjacent carbon is known as dienone-phenol rearrangement.
188.
Which compound is obtained when acetaldehyde is treated with dilute solution of caustic soda?
A
Sodium acetate
B
Resinous mass
C
Aldol
D
Ethyl acetate
Answer :
Aldol

189.
The best oxidising agent for oxidation of $$C{H_3} - CH = CH - CHO$$ to $$C{H_3} - CH = CH - COOH$$ is
A
Baeyer's reagent
B
Tollens' reagent
C
Schiff's reagent
D
acidified dichromate
Answer :
Tollens' reagent
Tollens' reagent oxidises only $$-CHO$$ to $$-COOH$$ group.
190. the shown polymer is obtained when a carbonyl compound is allowed to stand. It is a white solid. The polymer is
A
trioxane
B
$$para$$ - formaldehyde
C
formose
D
$$meta$$ - aldehyde
Answer :
trioxane
When formaldehyde is allowed to stand at room temperature, it slowly undergoes, polymerisation and forms a white solid called meta-formaldehyde or trioxane.
