(A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)

(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)

Correct Answer:

(A)-(I), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → (A)-(I), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)

List-I (Reaction)

List-II (Name)

(A) 

(I) Aldol Reaction

(B) 

(IV) Hell Volhard Zelinski Reaction

(C) 

(II) Cannizzaro Reaction

(D) 

(III) Haloform Reaction

 

(A) CH₃CHO + Dil. NaOH → CH₃CHOHCH₂ CHO

Acetaldehyde undergoes self-condensation in presence of dilute base to give β-hydroxy aldehyde. This is Aldol reaction. (A) → (I)

(B) CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH + Br₂ / Red P / H₂O → CH₃CH₂CHBrCOOH

This is α-bromination of carboxylic acid. This reaction is Hell–Volhard–Zelinski reaction. (B) → (IV)

(C) C₆H₅CHO + Conc. KOH → C₆H₅COONa + C₆H₅CH₂OH

Benzaldehyde (no α-hydrogen) undergoes disproportionation in strong base. This is Cannizzaro reaction. (C) → (II)

(D) CH₃COCH₃ + NaOCl → CH₃COONa + CHCl₃ Methyl ketone gives chloroform.

This is Haloform reaction. (D) → (III)
