(a)
Interpretation:
The alcohol whose oxidation product will be 2-methylpropanal has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation:
When a carbon atom in the reactant forms more bonds to the oxygen or less bonds to hydrogen, it is said to be oxidation.
On oxidation, alcohol group is converted to carbonyl group (
(b)
Interpretation:
The alcohol whose oxidation product will be 2-pentanone has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation:
When a carbon atom in the reactant forms more bonds to the oxygen or less bonds to hydrogen, it is said to be oxidation.
On oxidation, alcohol group is converted to carbonyl group (aldehyde or ketone) and on further oxidation, it is converted to carboxylic acid group. In mild oxidation, only one conversion occurs and primary alcohol converts to aldehyde and secondary alcohol converts to ketone.
(c)
Interpretation:
The alcohol whose oxidation product will be 3-methylbutanoic acid has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation:
When a carbon atom in the reactant forms more bonds to the oxygen or less bonds to hydrogen, it is said to be oxidation.
On oxidation, alcohol group is converted to carbonyl group (aldehyde or ketone) and on further oxidation, it is converted to carboxylic acid group. In mild oxidation, only one conversion occurs and primary alcohol converts to aldehyde and secondary alcohol converts to ketone.
