In the reaction sequence
$2 \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CHO} \stackrel{\mathrm{OH}^{-}}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{A} \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{B} ;$ the product $\mathrm{B}$ is:
  1. $\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{OH}$
  2. $\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CHO}$
  3. $\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{3}$

Solution

The reactions are:
,
