Which of the following compounds will give a positive iodoform test?

Show Hint

For the iodoform test, look for compounds with a methyl ketone (\( \text{CH}_3\text{CO}- \)) or alcohols that oxidize to form such a group (e.g., \( \text{CH}_3\text{CH(OH)}- \)). Secondary alcohols like propan-2-ol are classic examples.
