Question

Identify the product C in following reaction.

\[\ce{CH3CH2COOH ->[NaOH] A ->[NaOH][CaO*\Delta] B ->[HNO3][\Delta] C}\]

विकल्प

• \[\ce{CH3CH2CH3}\]

• \[\ce{CH3CH2CH2OH}\]

• \[\ce{CH2 = CH2}\]

• \[\ce{CH3CH2NO2}\]

Answer 1

\[\ce{CH3CH2NO2}\]

Explanation:

\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{O}\phantom{............................}\ce{O}\phantom{....................................................}\\
||\phantom{............................}||\phantom{....................................................}\\
\ce{\underset{\text{Propanoic acid}}{CH3 - CH2 - C - OH} ->[NaOH] \underset{\text{(A)}}{\underset{\text{Sodium propionate}}{CH3 - CH2 - C - ONa}} ->[NaOH][CaO, \Delta - Na2CO3] \underset{\text{(B)}}{\underset{\text{Ethane}}{CH3 - CH3}} ->[HNO3][\Delta] \underset{\text{(C)}}{\underset{\text{Nitroethane}}{CH3 - CH2 - NO2 + H2O}}}
\end{array}\]
