Solution
The correct option is D acetoxime The product 'C' in the following sequence of chemical reaction is Acetoxime. CH3COOHCa(OH)2−−−−−→(CH3COO)2CaΔ−→C(B)H3COCH3(A)NH2OH−−−−−→CH3H3C|C=N−OHAcetoxime
Acetic acid reacts with calcium hydroxide to give calcium acetate.
Calcium acetate on dry distillation gives acetone.
Acetone undergoes condensation reaction with hydroxylamine to form acetoxime.
