MCQ
$A\xrightarrow{{}}{(C{H_3})_2}C = CHCOC{H_3}\,\,\,\,A$  is
  • Acetone
  • B
    Acetaldehyde
  • C
    Propionaldehyde
  • D
    Formaldehyde

Answer

Correct option: A.
Acetone
a
(a)Two molecules of acetone condense in presence of dry $HCl$ gas to form mesityl oxide.

$\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {C{H_3}} \\ 
  {C{H_3}} 
\end{array} > C = O\, + \,$ $\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,O} \\ 
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,||} \\ 
  {{H_2} - CH - C - C{H_3}} 
\end{array}$ $\xrightarrow[{ - \,{H_2}O}]{{HCl}}$ $\mathop {{{(C{H_3})}_2}C = CH.COC{H_3}}\limits_{Mesityl\,\,oxide} $
