If a TLC plate was done in acetone and hexane which would have a higher rf value:

1. Benzenaldehyde or 1,4-Pentadien-3-one, 1,5-diphenyl-?

2.Benzenaldehyde or 2,2’-(phenylmethylene)bis(5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione)?

3. Benzenaldehyde or 3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-9-phenyl-3,4,5,6,7,9-hexahydro-1H-xanthene-1,8(2H)-dione?

Expert Solution

Less polar compound has higher Rf value because it has less affinity with stationary phase which is polar and hence moves faster on stationary phase

Here 1 Benzenaldehyde Or 1,4-Pentadien-3-one, 1,5-diphenyl has high Rf value because of less polarity as compare with other 2
