Identify the compounds (X), (Y) and (Z) in the following reaction:
\(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{Br} \xrightarrow{\mathrm{Mg} / \text { ther }} X \xrightarrow[\text { (ii) water }]{\text { (i) } \mathrm{CO}_{2}} Y \xrightarrow[\Delta]{\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}, \mathrm{H}^{+}} Z\)
\(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{Br} \xrightarrow{\mathrm{Mg} / \text { ther }} X \xrightarrow[\text { (ii) water }]{\text { (i) } \mathrm{CO}_{2}} Y \xrightarrow[\Delta]{\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}, \mathrm{H}^{+}} Z\)
- (X) = CH3MgBr, (Y) = CH3COOH, (Z) = CH3COOCH3
- (X) = CH3CH2Br, (Y) = CH3CH2OH, (Z) = CH3CH2CH2CH3
- (X) = CH3CH2MgBr, (Y) = CH3CH2COOH, (Z) = CH3CH2COCH3
- (X) = CH3COOH, (Y) = CH3CH2COCH3, (Z) = CH3COOCH3
Answer
(A) ( X ) = CH 3 MgBr, ( Y ) = CH 3 COOH, ( Z ) = CH 3 COOCH 3
