Solution
\[\ce{I2}\] and \[\ce{NaOH}\] solution
Explanation:
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\phantom{......................}\ce{O}\phantom{....................................}\ce{O}\phantom{..............}\\
\phantom{....................}||\phantom{.....................................}||\phantom{............}\\
\phantom{}\ce{CH3CH = CH - CH2 - C - CH3 ->[I2 + NaOH] CH3CH = CHCH2 - C - ONa + CHI3}\\
