Butanal with dilute NaOH gives

A

`OHC CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CHO`

B

`CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH(OH)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CHO`

C

`CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH(OH)CH(CH_(2)CH_(3))CHO`

D

`CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)COCH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CHO`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`underset("Butanal")(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH_(2))-underset(O)underset(||)overset(H)overset(|)(C)+CH_(3)-CH_(2)-underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)(C)-overset(H)overset(|)(C) =O underset("Aldol")overset("dil.NaOH")(rarr)CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)-underset(OH)underset(|)(C)H-overset(CH_(2)CH_(3))overset(|)(C)H-overset(H)overset(|)(C)=O`
i.e. `CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH(OH)CH(CH_(2)CH_(3))CHO`
