In the following reaction sequence, the major product Q is
\(\text{L-Glucose}\xrightarrow[ii)Cr_2,775K,10-20 \text{atm}]{i)HI, \Delta}P\xrightarrow[UV]{Cl_2(excess)}Q\)
\(\text{L-Glucose}\xrightarrow[ii)Cr_2,775K,10-20 \text{atm}]{i)HI, \Delta}P\xrightarrow[UV]{Cl_2(excess)}Q\)
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
To solve the problem, we analyze the reaction sequence starting from L-glucose to find the major product Q.
1. Step i) Reaction with HI and heat (\(\Delta\)):
- The sugar undergoes cleavage of C-O bonds by HI.
- This reduces glucose to a mixture of iodoalkanes (polyiodo compounds).
- The carbon skeleton remains but oxygen atoms are replaced by iodine.
2. Step ii) Oxidation with Cr\(_2\)O\(_3\), high temperature and pressure:
- Iodoalkanes are oxidized to form fully chlorinated cyclic hydrocarbons (via halogen exchange).
- Oxygen atoms are removed, and the carbon framework becomes a chlorinated cyclic structure.
3. Step iii) Treatment with excess Cl\(_2\) under UV:
- Further chlorination occurs, leading to a hexachlorinated cyclohexane derivative.
4. Structure of the final product Q:
- Hexachlorocyclohexane (all positions chlorinated).
- This corresponds to structure (D).
Final Answer:
Option (D)

A solid glass sphere of refractive index $ n = \sqrt{3} $ and radius $ R $ contains a spherical air cavity of radius $ \dfrac{R}{2} $, as shown in the figure. A very thin glass layer is present at the point $ O $ so that the air cavity (refractive index $ n = 1 $) remains inside the glass sphere. An unpolarized, unidirectional and monochromatic light source $ S $ emits a light ray from a point inside the glass sphere towards the periphery of the glass sphere. If the light is reflected from the point $ O $ and is fully polarized, then the angle of incidence at the inner surface of the glass sphere is $ \theta $. The value of $ \sin \theta $ is ____

The center of a disk of radius $ r $ and mass $ m $ is attached to a spring of spring constant $ k $, inside a ring of radius $ R>r $ as shown in the figure. The other end of the spring is attached on the periphery of the ring. Both the ring and the disk are in the same vertical plane. The disk can only roll along the inside periphery of the ring, without slipping. The spring can only be stretched or compressed along the periphery of the ring, following Hooke’s law. In equilibrium, the disk is at the bottom of the ring. Assuming small displacement of the disc, the time period of oscillation of center of mass of the disk is written as $ T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} $. The correct expression for $ \omega $ is ( $ g $ is the acceleration due to gravity):

A conducting square loop initially lies in the $ XZ $ plane with its lower edge hinged along the $ X $-axis. Only in the region $ y \geq 0 $, there is a time dependent magnetic field pointing along the $ Z $-direction, $ \vec{B}(t) = B_0 (\cos \omega t) \hat{k} $, where $ B_0 $ is a constant. The magnetic field is zero everywhere else. At time $ t = 0 $, the loop starts rotating with constant angular speed $ \omega $ about the $ X $ axis in the clockwise direction as viewed from the $ +X $ axis (as shown in the figure). Ignoring self-inductance of the loop and gravity, which of the following plots correctly represents the induced e.m.f. ($ V $) in the loop as a function of time:
