Q26 / 120 · VITEEE 2012 · Chemistry
In the following reaction,
$$
\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{Br} \frac{\text { (i) } \mathrm{Mg}, \text { Ether }}{\text { (ii) } \mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{+}} \mathrm{X}
$$
the product ' $\mathrm{X}^{\prime}$ is
- A$\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OCH}_{2} \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5}$
- B$\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}$
- Correct answerC$\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{CH}_{3}$,
- D$\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5}$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
