Which among the following compounds give yellow solid when reacted with NaOI/NaOH?
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Show Hint
- (B), (C) and (E) Only
- (A) and (C) Only
- (C) and (D) Only
- (A), (C) and (D) Only
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
When alcohols are reacted with NaOI/NaOH, a yellow solid is produced due to the formation of iodine complexes.
Upon examining the compounds:
- (A) \( \text{CH}_3 \text{CH}_2 \text{C}_2 \text{H}_5 \) (an alcohol) reacts with NaOI/NaOH, producing a yellow solid.
- (B) \( \text{CH}_3 \text{CH}_2 \text{C}_2 \text{H}_2 \text{OH} \) (an alcohol) reacts with NaOI/NaOH, producing a yellow solid.
- (C) \( \text{CH}_3 \text{C}_2 \text{H}_5 \) (an aldehyde) does not react with NaOI/NaOH to produce a yellow solid.
- (D) \( \text{CH}_3 \text{OH} \) does not react with NaOI/NaOH to form a yellow solid.
- (E) \( \text{CH}_3 \text{CH}_2 \text{H} \) does not react with NaOI/NaOH to form a yellow solid.
Thus, the correct answer is (2).

- Carbohydrates are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones that represent enormous structural diversity in terms of the arrangement of atoms in space, resulting in hundreds of stereoisomers. Although the chemical properties of most stereoisomers may not be very different, their metabolic rate and utilization in biological systems is significantly different and known to influence the overall carbohydrate metabolism. Structural variants, which arise due to a different arrangement of atoms in three-dimensional space are known as stereoisomers. The number of stereoisomers can be theoretically estimated by using the formula 2n, where ‘n’ is the number of stereocenters or asymmetric (chiral) carbon atoms in a molecule. Out of these stereoisomers, there are some structures, which are mirror images of each other, and they are referred to as enantiomers.
