Compound AA, C4H®O, gives a positive result (formation of a silver mirror) when reacted with Tollen's reagent. Reduction of compound AA with lithium aluminium hydride, LIAIH4 followed by acidified water, H3O* produces an alcohol, BB. Oxidation of BB with hot acidified potassium dichromate, K2Cr2O7 gives butanoic acid, C3H7COOH. Esterification between butanoic acid and methanol, CH3OH produces compound Cc. Dehydration of compound BB using concentrated sulphuric acid, H2SO4 at a temperature of 180°C produces compound DD.

Give the name (common name or IUPAC name) of intermediate product (a) in the following reaction.
A chemist synthesized compound X as a racemic mixture. When the ketone group in X was enzymatically reduced to the corresponding alcohol, a 100% yield was obtained of the product shown below. Choose the statement that best describes this result. ОН enzyme C;H1 `OCH,CH; pH 4.0 C3H1 `OCH,CH3 ОН ÕH X (racemic) (100% yield) One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme. The other enantiomer of compound X is unreactive, but rapidly equilibrates with the reactive enantiomer under the reaction conditions. Since compound X was racemic, it makes sense that only a single product was obtained. O The product is a meso compound, so either enantiomer of compound X gives the same product. One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme, while the other enantiomer of compound X remains unchanged.
