Which of the following does not give iodoform test?A. `C_(2)H_(5)OH`B. `C_(6)H_(5)OH`C. `(CH_(3))_(2)CHOH`D. All of these

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Compounds containing either `CH_(3)overset(|)CHOH or CH_(3)-overset(O)overset(|)C-` group, when react with `NaOH` and `I_(2)`, form yellow coloured iodoform. This test is called iodoform test. `C_(6)H_(5)OH` does not contains `CH_(3)underset(OH)underset("| ")"CH"-` group, thus it does not give iodoform test.
