ReportQuestion
The correct answer is n-propyl alcohol i.e. option C which can be explained as follows:
Mixture of P + I2 on reaction with ethanol causes its iodination i.e. product A is ethyl iodide(CH3CH2I) which on reaction with Mg, ether gives grignard reagent, CH3CH2MgI (product B) which reacts with formaldehyde to form CH3CH2CH2-OMgI (product C) which finally on hydrolysis gives n-propyl alcohol.
Hence, the correct answer is option C, CH3CH2CH2-OH.
