An organic compound neither reacts with ...

An organic compound neither reacts with neutral ferric chloride solution nor with Fehling solution. It however, reacts with Grignard reagent and gives positive iodoform test. The compound is

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Since the compound does not react with neutral `FeCl_(3)`, it is not phenol. It does not react with Fehling solution but reacts with Grignard reagent it should be a ketone. As it gives positive iodoform test, so it should contain `CH_(3)-underset(O)underset(||)C-CH_(3)-underset(OH)underset(|)CH-` group. Thus, the correct option is
