(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The product obtained when the given alcohol reacts with HOCl has to be given.

Concept introduction:

Oxidation of alcohol:

An important reagent helpful in the oxidation of alcohols is HOCl

Aldehydes are formed by the oxidation of primary alcohols and ketones are formed by the oxidation of secondary alcohols. Tertiary alcohol have no reaction with HOCl.

The mechanism involves the protonation of the oxygen in the first step. Then, removal of a proton from the carbon bonded to the -OCl group by a base occurs and the O-Cl bond breaks.
