Carbonyl group and relative reactivities of aldehydes and ketonesHard
Hydration of Formaldehyde and Chloral
Given below are two statements:
Consider the following reaction
Statement (I) : In the case of formaldehyde
, K is about 2280, due to small substituents, hydration is faster.
Statement (II) : In the case of trichloro acetaldehyde
, K is about 2000 due to – I effect of – Cl.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:
