Vedclass · Answer

(D) The conversion of a ketone ($3$-methylbutan-$2$-one) into an alkane (isopentane) is a reduction reaction of the carbonyl group to a methylene group.$1$. $Zn-Hg / 	ext{conc. } HCl$ is the reagent for Clemmensen reduction.$2$. $NH_2-NH_2 / OH^- / 	ext{ethylene glycol}$ is the reagent for Wolff-Kishner reduction.$3$. $	ext{Red } P / HI$ is a strong reducing agent capable of reducing carbonyl compounds to alkanes.Since all three reagents are capable of reducing the ketone to an alkane,the correct answer is $D$.
