JEE Main 2025 Chemistry question
An organic compound (X) with molecular formula is not readily oxidised. On reduction it gives (Y) which reacts with HBr to give a bromide (Z) which is converted to Grignard reagent. This Grignard reagent on reaction with (X) followed by hydrolysis give 2, 3-dimethylbutan-2-ol. Compounds (X), (Y) and (Z) respectively are
Answer: (1)
Solution
X is acetone (not oxidised), reduces to isopropanol (Y), reacts with HBr to give
