Compound `X` (molecular formula `C_5 H_8 O`) does not react appreciably with Lucas reagent at room temperature but gives a precipitate with amononiacal silver nitrate with excess of `MeMgBr, 0.42 gm` of `X` gives `224 ml` of `CH_4` at `S.T.P` Treatment of `X` with `H_2`. in the presence of `Pt` catalyst followed by boiling with excess of `HI`, gives n-pentane. Suggest the structure for `X` and write the equations involved.

To determine the structure of compound `X` (C₅H₈O) and write the relevant equations, we will analyze the information given step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the molecular formula The molecular formula of compound `X` is C₅H₈O. This indicates that it could be an unsaturated compound, likely containing a double or triple bond, or a cyclic structure. ### Step 2: Reaction with Lucas reagent The problem states that compound `X` does not react appreciably with Lucas reagent at room temperature. The Lucas test is used to differentiate between primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols: - **Tertiary alcohols** react quickly. ...
