An alcohol on oxidation is found to give $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COOH}$ and $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{COOH}$. The structure of the alcohol is
  1. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}$
  2. $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}ight)_{2} \mathrm{C}(\mathrm{OH}) \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}$
  3. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CHOHCH}_{3}$
  4. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}(\mathrm{OH}) \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}$
