A tertiary alcohol [H] upon acid catalysed dehydration gives a product [I]. Ozonolysis of [I] leads to compounds [J] to [K]. The compound [J] upon reactions with KOH gives benzyl alcohol a compound [L] wheras [K} on reaction with KOH gives only [M]. The compund [M] has the formula. The compound [H] is formed by the reaction og :

Answer»




SOLUTION :
`[K]` is `Ph-OVERSET(O)overset(||)(C)-CH_(3)` and `[M]` is formed by ALDOL condensation
`J overset(KOH)rarrPhCH_(2)OH + L`
Hence J is PhCH = O and L is `PhCOO^(-)`, the reaction INVOLVED is Cannizzaro's reactions

compound [H] is formed by the reactants involved in (b) and gives compound (I) as follows :-
