The reaction of with `CH_(3)OH` in (i) acid `H^(+)`, and (ii) base `CH_(3)O^(-)`, respectively, give

A

`(CH_(3))_(2)C(OCH_(3))CH_(2)OH` and `(CH_(3))_(2) CH(OH) CH_(2)OCH_(3)`

B

`(CH_(3))_(2)C(OCH_(3))CH_(2)OH` and `(CH_(3))_(2)C(OCH_(3))CH_(2)OH`

C

`(CH_(3))_(2)C (OCH_(3))CH_(2)OCH_(3)` and `(CH_(3))_(2)C (OH) CH_(2)OH`

D

`(CH_(3))_(2)C(OH)(CH_(2)OH)` and `(CH_(3))_(2)C(OCH_(3))CH_(2)OcH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
There occurs cleavage of ether linkagejn oxiranes (cyclic three membered ring including oxygen). In acid catalyzed feaction nucleophile `OCH^3` from `CH_3OH` attaches to the more substituted carbon where as in base catalyzed reaction, it is attached to the less substituted carbon.
