D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(a)
The product `(P)` should at least two `Me` groups. Only `(a)` contains at least two `Me` groups. In `(a)`, there are three `Me` groups, so one `Me` groups has come from the ester. Therefore, the structure of the ester is `(Me-overset(O)overset(||)(C )-OEt)` (Ethyl acetate or ethyl ethanoate).
