Vedclass · Answer

(A) The given reaction is a haloform reaction followed by decarboxylation. Step $1$: Treatment with $I_2 + NaOH$ (iodoform test) converts the acetyl group $(-COCH_3)$ into a carboxylate group $(-COO^-)$ and produces $CHI_3$ (iodoform). Step $2$: Acidification $(H^+)$ gives the corresponding $\beta$-keto acid. Step $3$: Heating the $\beta$-keto acid causes decarboxylation (loss of $CO_2$) to yield cyclohexanone as the final product.
