ANSWER:
Q1: An organic compound X, which is used in sterilization of syringes, has molecular formula C2H6O. 'X' on oxidation gives a compound Y which gives effervescence with baking soda. What can be X and Y? Write their structural formula :
Q2:An organic compound A (C7H5OCl) on reaction with H2/Pd with BaSO4 gives B and B undergoes disproportionation with NaOH to give C and D. B on reaction with CH3MgBr/H3O+ gives E. Identify the compounds and write their names.
EXPLANATION:
just pick one of q1 and q2
A' +CH3MgBr−H2O→CH3CH2CH(OH)CH3-conc. H2SO4→′B′−Br2→′C′−alc.KOH→′D′.
