Dear Student,
The solution to your Q. 17 has been provided below:
A haloform (CHX3) where X can be halogen, is produced by halogenation of a substituted ketone (usually methyl ketone, RCOCH3) or alcohol (CH3CH(OH)R) in the presence of alkaline medium or a base. Such a reaction is called haloform reaction.
Haloform formed is a precipitate.
RCOCH3 + NaOH/I2 → RCOONa + CHX3
Compounds which give haloform reaction must have the following groups: CH3CO- and CH3CH(OH)-.
For remaining queries we request you to post them in separate threads to have rapid assistance from our experts.
Regards
