Question
Out of CH3CH2 – CO – CH2 – CH3 and CH3CH2 – CH2 – CO – CH3, which gives iodoform test?
Solution 1
CH3CH2 – CH2 –CO –CH3
Solution 2
Pentan-2-one (CH3-CH2-CH2-CO-CH3) give yellow precipitate of CHI3 with NaOI, thats means it gives iodoform test.
Pentan-3-one (CH3-CH2-CO-CH2-CH3) does not give yellow precipitate with CHI3 with NaOI, so Pentan-3-one does not give iodoform test.
