$CH_3CH_2COCH_2CH_3$

Vedclass · Answer

(D) The "Iodoform" test is given by compounds containing the $CH_3CO-$ group or the $CH_3CH(OH)-$ group.$A$. $CH_3CHO$ (Acetaldehyde) contains the $CH_3CO-$ group,so it gives a positive "Iodoform" test.$B$. $CH_3CH(OH)CH_2CH_3$ (Butan-$2$-ol) contains the $CH_3CH(OH)-$ group,which is oxidized to a $CH_3CO-$ group by "Sodium hypoiodite",hence it gives a positive "Iodoform" test.$C$. $CH_3CH_2COCH_3$ (Butan-$2$-one) contains the $CH_3CO-$ group,so it gives a positive "Iodoform" test.$D$. $CH_3CH_2COCH_2CH_3$ (Pentan-$3$-one) does not contain the $CH_3CO-$ group or the $CH_3CH(OH)-$ group. Therefore,it will not give the "Iodoform" test.Thus,the correct option is $D$.

Which of the following compounds will not give "Iodoform" by reaction with "Sodium hypoiodite"?
