Question

Which one of the following statements is false?

Which one of the following statements is false regarding the Qualitative Analysis Experiment? Fluorescein decolorizes Br_2/CH_2Cl_2 reagent and gives a colored complex with FeCl_3 solution. Chlomaphazine gives a positive NaI/acetone test and negative AgNO_3/EtOH test. Retinol reacts positively with Br_2/CH_2Cl_2 and Jones reagents and negatively with Lucas Terpineol gives a positive Lucas test and a positive Br_2/CH_2Cl_2. Propiophenone gives a positive 2, 4-DNP test and a negative Tollens test.

Explanation / Answer

The false answer is Fluorescein decolorizes Br2/CH2Cl2 and gives colored complex with FeCl3 solution.

Fluorescein is an aromatic compound which can not react with  Br2/CH2Cl2 to decolorize it. Br2/CH2Cl2 reacts with isolated double bond and gives 1,2 dibromo compound. Aromatic ring will not react with Br2/CH2Cl2
