Four isomeric optically active compounds `overset (NaHCO_3) rarr CO_2 (g) (A, B , C, D) (C_4 H_8 O_3)`
Compound `(A) overset (LAH) rarr ( E)` (Archiral compound)
Compound `(B) overset (KMnO_4) underset (or CrO_3) rarr` Inert to oxidation.
Compound `( C) underset (NaOI//H_3 O^(oplus)) rarr CHI_3 (Yellow ppt.) + Compound (F)`.
Compound `( C)` is :

Options

A. `(I)`
B. `(II)`
C. `(III)`
D. `(IV)`

Answer

B

Explanation

(b) (i) From the structures gives in the problem, `(A)` is `(I)`. Since with `LAH` it would give achiral compound `( E)`.

(ii) `(B)` id `(IV)`, since ethers are inert to oxidation.
(iii) Iosoform test is shown by `(II)`, so `(C)` is `(II)`.
(iv) .
