The number of alcohols giving iodoform test among the following is:
`CH_(3) CH_(2) OH, CH_(3) OH, CH_(3) CH_(2) CH_(2) OH, (CH_(3))_(2) (CHOH), CH_(3) CH_(3) CH_(2) CH_(2) OH`
`CH_(3) CH_(2) CH (OH)CH_(3), CH_(3) CH (OH)CH (CH_(3))_(2) (C_(2) H_(5))_(2) CHOH, (CH_(3))_(3) COH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4

Alcohols which contain the grouping `CH_(3)CHOH-` and hence give iodoform test are : `CH_(3)CH_(2)OH,CH_(3)CHOHCH_3,CH_(3)CHOHCH_2CH_(3),` and `CH_(3)CHOHCH(CH_3)_2`.
