Esters are functional isomers of:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A hydroxy aldehyde
The molecular formula of esters is: RCCOR′For example: CH3−O||C−OCH3 (C3H6O2)Hydroxyaldehyde example: CH3−CH|OH−CHO (C3H6O2)Ketone: CH3−O||C−CH3 Diketone: CH3−O||C−O||C−CH3 Diol: CH3−CH|OH−CH2|OHFrom the above examples we can conclude that esters are functional isomers of hydroxy aldehyde as both have same molecular formula.
