Question

The major product formed in the reaction.

C6H5CHO + CH3NO2$\xrightarrow [ \text { heat } ] { \mathrm { NaOH } }$ (X)

• A.
• B.
• C. C6H5CH = CH – NO2
• D.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

C6H5CH = CH – NO2

Answer 2

$\xrightarrow { \mathrm { H } ^ { + } }$

$\xrightarrow [ \Delta ] { \mathrm { NaOH } }$

C6H5 – CH = CH – NO2
