Identify the compounds

A is butylbutanoate. CH₃CH₂CH₂COOCH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃

 

 

On reaction with H₂SO₄, it produces butanoic acid (B) and butanol (C).

 

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOCH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ -------------> CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH + CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OH

 

The alcohol, i.e. butanol on oxidation will produce butanoic acid.

 

CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OH + KMnO₄ ------------> CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH

Butanol undergoes dehydration in the presence of H₂SO₄, and produces but-1-ene.
