(c)

Interpretation:

The product of the given reaction is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Chromic acid will oxidize a primary alcohol to a carboxylic acid or a secondary alcohol to a ketone. Chromic acid is prepared by dissolving sodium dichromate in an acidic solution. Oxidation of chromic acid requires an OH group that is attached to a carbon atom bonded to atleast one hydrogen atom. In tertiary alcohols, the carbon atom bonded to the OH group has no hydrogen atom attached, thus, chromic acid cannot oxidize tertiary alcohols.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 19.56P

There is no product of the given reaction, as chromic acid cannot oxidize tertiary alcohols.

Explanation of Solution

The given reaction is

Organic Chemistry: Principles And Mechanisms, Chapter 19, Problem 19.56P , additional homework tip  9

This is an example of an oxidation of a secondary alcohol using chromium trioxide in aqueous acid. Chromic acid oxidizes a secondary alcohol into corresponding ketone. Oxidation of chromic acid requires an OH group that is attached to a carbon atom bonded to atleast one hydrogen atom. In tertiary alcohols, the carbon atom bonded to the OH group has no hydrogen atom attached, thus, chromic acid cannot oxidize tertiary alcohols.

There is no product of the given reaction, as chromic acid cannot oxidize tertiary alcohols.

Conclusion

Chromic acid cannot oxidize tertiary alcohols as in tertiary alcohols carbon atom which is attached to the hydroxyl group does not have any hydrogen atom attached.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The product of the given reaction is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Chromic acid will oxidize a primary alcohol to a carboxylic acid or a secondary alcohol to a ketone. Aldehydes are oxidized to corresponding carboxylic acids using chromic acid but chromic acid is not sufficiently strong to oxidize ketones.

Concept introduction:

Like chromic acid, potassium permanganate is also used as an oxidizing agent. When treated with a basic solution of potassium permanganate (KMnO4), followed by aqueous acid: Primary alcohols and aldehydes are converted to carboxylic acids, while secondary alcohols are converted to ketones. However, tertiary alcohols do not undergo an oxidation reaction with KMnO4.

Interpretation Introduction

(f)

Interpretation:

The product of the given reaction is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) is a partial oxidizing agent. Oxidation of a primary alcohol by pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) stops at the aldehyde because the reaction takes place in a nonaqueous medium. Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) oxidizes a primary alcohol to an aldehyde and a secondary alcohol to a ketone.
