An ether A `(C_5H_(12)O)` when heated with excess hot concentrated HI produced two alkyl halides which on hydrolysis give B and C. Oxidation of B gives an acid D whereas oxidation of C gives ketone E. Both B and C give haloform reaction. Identify A to E along with their structures and the given reactions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2


Therefore, ether group is attached at the `2^(nd)` carbon of carbon chain.
