Which derivative cannot be prepared directly from acetic acid?
کون سا مشتق براہ راست ایسٹک ایسڈ سے تیار نہیں کیا جاسکتا؟
Explanation
Acetyl chloride (CH₃COCl) cannot be prepared directly from acetic acid due to the poor leaving ability of the –OH group.
It requires a chlorinating agent like PCl₅, PCl₃, or SOCl₂ for conversion.
Therefore, it cannot be prepared directly from acetic acid.
