(a)
Interpretation:
The product formed in the reaction of 1-Hexanol with chromic acid has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation of alcohols: Oxidation of primary alcohol gives an
Chromic acid Oxidation of an Alcohol:
Step 1: Reaction of alcohol and chromic acid gives an alkyl chromate. No change in oxidation state of both Carbon and Chromium.
Step 2: Take a proton away and simultaneously break bonds to give stable molecules or ions. Reaction of the alkyl chromate with a base (here water molecule) results in cleavage of a
(b)
Interpretation:
The product formed in the reaction of 2-Hexanol with chromic acid has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation of alcohols: Oxidation of primary alcohol gives an aldehyde or a carboxylic acid, depending on experimental conditions.
Chromic acid Oxidation of an Alcohol:
Step 1: Reaction of alcohol and chromic acid gives an alkyl chromate. No change in oxidation state of both Carbon and Chromium.
Step 2: Take a proton away and simultaneously break bonds to give stable molecules or ions. Reaction of the alkyl chromate with a base (here water molecule) results in cleavage of a
(c)
Interpretation:
The product formed in the reaction of Cyclohexanol with chromic acid has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
