    An organic compound, \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{6}}O\] does not give a precipitate with 2, 4-dinitrophenyl-hydrazine reagent and does not react with metallic sodium. It could be

    A) \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-CHO\]

    B) \[C{{H}_{2}}=CH-C{{H}_{2}}OH\]

    C) \[C{{H}_{3}}-CO-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    D) \[C{{H}_{2}}=CH-O-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Negative reaction with 2,4-dinitrophenyl-hydrazine indicates absence of aldehydic (option a) and ketonic (option c) group, while negative reaction with metallic sodium indicates absence of an alcoholic group (option b), hence the organic compound, \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{6}}O\] is \[C{{H}_{2}}=CHOC{{H}_{3}}\] (option d).
