Question

In the following sequence of reactions a compound A, (molecular formula C₆H₁₂O₂) with a straight chain structure gives a C₄ carboxylic acid. A is :

$C{H_3} - C{H_2} - COO - C{H_2} - C{H_2} - C{H_3}$

$C{H_3} - C{H_2} - C{H_2} - COO - C{H_2} - C{H_3}$

$C{H_3} - C{H_2} - C{H_2} - O - CH = CH - C{H_2} - OH$
