Which of the following reaction is not feasible?

A
Correct answer
B
C
D

Solution

Reaction in option (b) is not feasible as it has a primary alcohol and the dehydration of a $1^{\circ}$ alcohol is preferable at temperatures of about $443 \mathrm{~K}$. Secondary and tertiary alcohols are able to undergo dehydration at mild conditions too.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
