Ph - C - C - H (I)KOH/Δ →(II)H3O+ A The product of above reaction is:

Question

\(Ph - \overset{\overset{O}{||}}{C} - \overset{\overset{O}{||}}{C} - H \underset{(II)H_3O^{+}}{\xrightarrow{(I)KOH/ \Delta}} A\)

The product of above reaction is :

(1) \(Ph - \overset{\overset{O}{||}}{C} - CH_2 - OH\)

(2) \(Ph - \overset{\overset{OH}{|}}{CH} - \overset{\overset{O}{||}}{C} - OH\)

(3) \(Ph - \overset{\overset{OH}{|}}{CH} - CH_2 - OH\)

(4) \(Ph - \overset{\overset{O}{||}}{C} - \overset{\overset{O}{||}}{C} - OH\)

Answer 1

Correct option is:  (2) \(Ph - \overset{\overset{OH}{|}}{CH} - \overset{\overset{O}{||}}{C} - OH\)
