An ester (1) with mol. formula C₉H₁₀O₂ was treated with excess of CH₃–Mg Br and the complex. So formed was treated with H₂SO₄ to give on olefin (2). Ozonolysis of (2) gave a ketone with molecular formula C₈H₈O which shows the iodoform test the structure of (1) is –
A
C₆H₅ COOC₂H₅
B
CH₃COCH₂COC₆H₅
C
P CH₃O–C₆H₄–COCH₃
D
C₆H₅COOC₆H₅
Answer
C₆H₅ COOC₂H₅
