2. Ortho-nitro phenol

3. Phenol

4. 2-methyl-2-hydroxy propane

Consider the following reaction,

2. NaOH     

3. KOH     

4. MgCO₃

A and B in the following reactions are

Acetaldehyde normally reacts with                

1. only electrophiles

2. only nucleophiles

3. only free radicals

4. both electrophiles and nucleophiles

Nucleophilic addition reaction will be most favoured in                   [2006]

1. $$
$\mathrm{O}$
$\parallel$
${\mathrm{CH}}_3-{\mathrm{CH}}_2-{\mathrm{CH}}_2\mathrm{C}-{\mathrm{CH}}_3$

2. $({\mathrm{CH}}_3{)}_2\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{O}$

3. ${\mathrm{CH}}_3{\mathrm{CH}}_2\mathrm{CHO}$

4. ${\mathrm{CH}}_3\mathrm{CHO}$
