What is $$X$$ in the following conversion ?
What is $$X$$ in the following conversion ?
A.
$${K_2}C{r_2}{O_7},{H_2}S{O_4}/{H_2}O$$
B.
$$HI{O_4}$$
C.
$$PCC/C{H_2}C{l_2}$$
D.
$$Os{O_4},{\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}C.COOH,{\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}COH,O{H^ - }$$
Answer :
$$PCC/C{H_2}C{l_2}$$
Solution :
Pyridinium chloro chromate selectively oxidises a primary alcohol to an aldehyde e.g. \[RC{{H}_{2}}OH\xrightarrow[C{{H}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}]{PCC}RCHO\]
