When `CH_(2) = CH - COOH` is reduced with `LiAlH_(4)`, the compound obtained will be

A

`CH_(3) - CH_(2) - COOH`

B

`CH_(2) = CH - CH_(2)OH`

C

`CH_(3)CH_(2) - CH_(2)OH`

D

`CH_(3) - CH_(2) - CHO`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
When `CH_(2) = CH - COOH` is reduced with `LiAlH_(4) : CH_(2) = CH - CH_(2)OH` compound is formed because `LiAlH_(4)` reduces `-COOH` to `CH_(2)OH` without affecting `C = C` bond
