Question

An organic compound 'A' (C9H10O) when treated with conc. HI undergoes cleavage to yield compound 'B' and 'C'. 'B' gives yellow precipitate with AgNO3 where as 'C' tautomerizes to 'D'. 'D' gives positive iodoform test. 'A' could be:

(A) O–CH2–CH=CH2
(B) CH2–O–CH=CH2
(C) O–CH=CH–CH3
(D) O–CH=CH2 H3C
