An organic compound A (C5H10O2) reacts with Br2 in presence of phosphorous to produce B which can be resolved into enantiomers. B on dehydrobromination yields C(C5H8O2) which does not show stereoisomerism. C on decarboxylation gives an alkene which on further ozonolysis gives D and E. D gives Fehling’s test but E does not. The correct identity of these compounds are

A is (CH 3 ) 2 CHCH 2 COOH , B is (CH 3 ) 2 CHCHBrCOOH , C is (CH 3 ) 2 C==CHCOOH , E is acetone
