Question

Which of the following compound when treated with dibenzyl cadmium yields benzyl methyl ketone?

पर्याय

• Acetone 

• Acetaldehyde 

• Acetic acid

• Acetyl chloride

Answer 1

Acetyl chloride

Explanation:

\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{O}\phantom{....................................}\ce{O}\phantom{..................}\\
||\phantom{.....................................}||\phantom{..................}\\
\ce{\underset{Acetyl Chloride}{2CH3 - C -} Cl + \underset{Dibenzyl Cadmium}{(C6H5CH2)2Cd} -> 2CH3 - C - \underset{Benzylmethyl ketone}{CH2 - C6H5} + CdCl2}
\end{array}\]

Here, Ph = Phenyl group
