(a)
Interpretation:
To predict the major product when the given set of compounds is treated with bromine in presence of sodium hydroxide followed by aqueous acid
Concept introduction:
The starting material here is a methyl
(b)
Interpretation:
To predict the major product when the given set of compounds is treated with bromine in presence of sodium hydroxide followed by aqueous acid.
Concept introduction:
The starting material here is a methyl ketone which reacts with bromine in presence of base namely sodium hydroxide to form carboxylate and a bromoform. This undergoes reaction with aqueous acid to form carboxylic acid. This reaction is known as haloform reaction. Please do remember that this is a qualitative analysis for checking the presence of methyl ketone in compounds.
