MCQ
Assertion $(A):$ Isobutanal does not give the iodoform test.
Reason $(R):$ It does not have alpha$-$hydrogen.
  • Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
  • C

  • D
    $A$ is false but $R$ is true.

Answer

Correct option: A.
Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
Isobutanal does not give an iodoform test because it does not have the $-\ce{COCH_3}$ group.
