B. Iodoform reaction II. (i) $Cr{O_2}C{l_2},C{S_2}$ (ii) ${H_2}O$
C. Etard reaction III. (i) $B{r_2}$ / red phosphorus (ii) $H_2O$
D. Gatterman-Koch reaction IV. $CO,HCl,$, anhyd. $AlC{l_3}$

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
  2. B A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV Correct answer
  3. C A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
  4. D A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV

Solution

<ul> <li>Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction involves halogenation and is carried out using halogens like bromine along with red phosphorus and water. So, A matches with III.</li><br/> <li>Iodoform reaction involves the reaction of iodine and sodium hydroxide. So, B matches with I.</li><br/> <li>Etard reaction involves the oxidation of aromatic aldehydes and is carried out using chromyl chloride ($\mathrm{CrO_2Cl_2}$) and carbon disulfide ($\mathrm{CS_2}$), followed by water. So, C matches with II.</li><br/> <li>Gatterman-Koch reaction involves the formation of aromatic aldehydes using carbon monoxide, hydrochloric acid, and anhydrous aluminum chloride. So, D matches with IV.</li> </ul> <p>So, the correct option is :</p> <p>Option B<br/><br/> A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV</p>
