Which of the following conversions can be carried out by Clemmensen reduction?
Through which of the following reactions number of carbon atoms can be increased in the chain?
Benzophenone can be obtained by ............ .
Which of the following is the correct representation for intermediate of nucleophilic addition reaction to the given carbonyl compound (A)?
Why is there a large difference in the boiling points of butanal and butan-1-ol?
Butan-1-ol has intermolecular H-bonding as shown below
Butanol has polar $\mathrm{O} — \mathrm{H}$ bond due to which it shows intermolecular H -bonding which is not possible in case of butanal due to absence of polar bond. Instead of it has only weak dipole-dipole interactions. Hence, butanal has higher boiling point than butan-1-ol.
