Solution

The correct option is D $C_{4} H_{9} O_{4}$
$C_{4} H_{10} O_{4}$ is $C_{n} H_{2 n + 2}$ type compound, ie with unsaturation factor $0, C_{4} H_{8} O_{4}$ and $C_{4} H_{7} C l O_{4}$ are $C_{n} H_{2 n}$ (unsaturated) type compound, ie, have unsaturation factor $1$ while $C_{4} H_{9} O_{4}$ is $C_{n} H_{2 n + 1}$ type compound with unsaturation factor $0.5$ . Hence, $C_{4} H_{9} O_{4}$ does not represent an organic compound.
