1-treatment of ortho-xylene with CH3COCl and AlCl3 followed by hydrolysis gives virtually a single product(one isomer). Treatment of this product with NaOCl in base followed by acidification gives a crystalline solid. Write equations for these reactions.
2-Phenyl ethyl ketone,CH3CH2COC6H5, fails to give a positive iodoform test. oes this result mean that this compound does not react at all with the I2/KI reagent. Explain.
