Q. The end product ‘C’ in the following sequence of chemical reactions is $CH_{3}COOH\ \overset{\ \ \ CaCo_{3}\ \ \ \ }{\rightarrow}A\overset{\ \ \ \ Heat\ \ \ \ \ }{\rightarrow}B\overset{\ \ \ \ NH_{2}OH\ \ \ \ }{\rightarrow}C$
A) Acetaldehyde oxime
B) Formaldehyde oxime
C) Methyl nitrate
D) Acetoxime
Explanation
(d)
$CH_{3}COOH\overset{\ \ CaCo_{3}\ \ \ }{\rightarrow}\left( CH_{3}COO \right)_{2}Ca$
‘A’
$\underset{- CaCo_{3}}{\overset{\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \mathrm{\Delta}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ }{\rightarrow}}\left( CH_{3} \right)_{2}CO\underset{{- H}_{2}O}{\overset{\ \ \ \ NH_{2}OH\ \ \ \ }{\rightarrow}}\left( CH_{3} \right)_{2}C = NOH$
acetoxime
