H₂NNHC₆H₃(NO₂)₂ is the structural formula of 2,4-DNPH. Many, but not all, organic reactions need to be heated before reaction occurs. Which reaction occurs at a good rate at room temperature (20 °C)?

AC₁₀H₂₂ → C₈H₁₈ + C₂H₄
BCH₃CH₂CH₂Br + NH₃ → CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₂ + HBr
CCH₃CH₂OH + KBr → CH₃CH₂Br + KOH
D(CH₃)₂CO + H₂NNHC₆H₃(NO₂)₂ → (CH₃)₂C=NNHC₆H₃(NO₂)₂ + H₂O

✓ Correct answer

D: (CH₃)₂CO + H₂NNHC₆H₃(NO₂)₂ → (CH₃)₂C=NNHC₆H₃(NO₂)₂ + H₂O
