Which of the following reagents will convert isobutyraldehyde to the corresponding acid? \begin{array}{cccc} \mathrm{HNO}_3 & \mathrm{NH}_2 \mathrm{NH}_2 / \mathrm{OH}^{-} & 2\left[\mathrm{Ag}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_2\right]^{+} & \mathrm{NaOH} \\ I & II & III & IV \end{array}
  1. I, III
  2. I, II
  3. II, IV
  4. III, IV

Solution


Oxidizing agents $=\mathrm{HNO}_3, 2\left[\mathrm{Ag}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_2\right]^{+}$(Tollen's reagent) Nucleophilic agents $=\mathrm{NH}_2 \mathrm{NH}_2 / \mathrm{OH}^{-}, \mathrm{NaOH}$
