Compound EE, CSH100 gives a positive result (formation of silver mirror) when reacted with Tollen's reagent. Reduction of EE with sodium borohydride, NABH4 followed by acidified water, HsO produces compound FF. Dehydration of compound FF uses concentrated sulphuric acid, H2SO4 at a temperature of 180°C produces compound GG. Compound FF also reacts with hot acidified potassium dichromate, KCr2O, to produce 2-methylbutanoic acid, C.H;COOH. Esterification between 2-methylbutanoic acid and methanol, CH3OH produces compound HH.
