Which one gives idoform test in Ethanol and n-Propanol and why does the other one not so?

Answer»


Solution :Ethanol gives iodoform test because on OXIDATION it gives `CH_(4)-overset(O)overset(||)(C )-H` i.e., it has `CH_(3)-overset(O)overset(||)(C )-` group whereas `n`.
Propanol on oxidation gives `CH_(3)-CH_(2)-overset(O)overset(||)(C )-H` which does not have `CH-overset(O)overset(||)(C )` group therefore it will not RESPOND to iodoform test.
