Vedclass · Answer

(D) Tollen's reagent is an oxidizing agent used to detect the presence of aldehydes and $\alpha$-hydroxy ketones. $CH_3CHO$ (acetaldehyde) and $C_6H_5CHO$ (benzaldehyde) are aldehydes and will react with Tollen's reagent. $HCOOH$ (formic acid) also acts as a reducing agent and reacts with Tollen's reagent. $C_6H_5NO_2$ (nitrobenzene) is a nitro compound and does not contain an aldehyde group or a reducing functional group that reacts with Tollen's reagent.

Which of the following compounds does not react with Tollen's reagent?
