CH(3)OC(2)H(5) and (CH(3))(3)COCH(3) are...

`CH_(3)OC_(2)H_(5)` and `(CH_(3))_(3)COCH_(3)` are treated with hydroiodic acid. The fragments after reaction obtained are

A

`CH_(3)I+HOC_(2)H_(5), (CH_(3))_(3)C-I+HOCH_(3)`

B

`CH_(3)OH+C_(2)H_(5)I,(CH_(3))_(3)C-I+HOCH_(3)`

C

`CH_(3)OH+C_(2)H_(5)I,(CH_(3))_(3)C-OH+CH_(3)I`

D

`CH_(3)I+HOC_(2)H_(5),CH_(3)I+(CH_(3))_(3)C-OH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`CH_(3)OC_(2)H_(5)` undergoes cleavage by `S_(N)2` mechanism to give `CH_(3)I and C_(2)H_(5)OH` while `(CH_(3))_(3)COCH_(3)` undergoes cleavage by `S_(N)1` mechanism to give `(CH_(3))_(3)Cl and CH_(3)OH`
