1. When butan-1-ol, A, is oxidized using PCC under rigorously anhydrous conditions, an aldehyde, B, is easily obtained as the product. However, if water is present during the oxidation, a carboxylic acid, C, is produced instead. When butan-2- ol, D, is oxidized with PCC, a ketone, E, is produced, regardless of whether or not water is present. Finally, 2- methylbutan-2-ol, F, cannot be oxidized using PCC under any conditions. () Explain why water affects the oxidation of a primary alcohol using PCC but net affect the oxidation of a secondary alcohol. Then, () explain why a tertiary alcohol cannot be oxidized using PCC regardless of conditions. You do not need to show any mechanisms, but be sure to draw the structures of any important intermediates discussed in your answer. :ÖH A D.

Alkanes and Cycloalkanes

Alkanes are saturated organic compounds which are made up of C and H atoms. Alkanes have the general formula of CnH2n+2. Alkane contains sp3 hybridized carbon atoms with four sigmas (σ) bonds & every hydrogen atom is connected with one of the carbon atoms. The size of the alkane could be determined by the number of carbon atoms located in it.
