Match the following chemical tests in List-I with the functional groups or compounds they identify in List-II. List-I: (A) Baeyer test, (B) Ceric ammonium nitrate test, (C) Tollen's dye test (phthalein dye test), (D) Schiff test List-II: (I) Phenol, (II) Aldehyde, (III) Alcoholic -OH group, (IV) Unsaturation Choose the correct matching:

  1. (A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
  2. (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
  3. (A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)
  4. (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)

Correct answer: (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)

Solution

Baeyer test: alkaline KMnO4 is decolourised by unsaturated compounds (alkenes/alkynes) -> identifies unsaturation (IV). Ceric ammonium nitrate test: gives red colour with alcoholic -OH groups -> identifies alcoholic OH (III). Phthalein dye test (thalen dye test): used to identify phenols -> (I). Schiff test: Schiff's reagent (fuchsin-SO2) turns pink/magenta with aldehydes -> identifies aldehyde (II). Matching: A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II.
