The correct Answer is:
To determine which oxidation reactions can be carried out with chromic acid in aqueous acetone at 5-10°C, we need to analyze each option based on the type of alcohol present (primary, secondary, or tertiary) and the expected products of their oxidation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Type of Alcohol in Each Option:** - **Option 1:** CH3CH2C≡C(CH3)OH (This is a secondary alcohol) - **Option 2:** CH3CH2CHOH (This is a primary alcohol) - **Option 3:** C6H5CH3 (This is a side-chain alcohol, which can be oxidized) - **Option 4:** CH3CH2C(CH3)2OH (This is a tertiary alcohol) 2. **Determine the Oxidation Products:** - **Option 1:** Secondary alcohol oxidizes to a ketone. Thus, it can be oxidized. - **Option 2:** Primary alcohol oxidizes to an aldehyde. Thus, it can be oxidized. - **Option 3:** Side-chain oxidation of a methyl group attached to a benzene ring will yield benzoic acid. Thus, it can be oxidized. - **Option 4:** Tertiary alcohol does not oxidize under these conditions. Thus, it cannot be oxidized. 3. **Conclusion:** - The oxidation reactions that can be carried out with chromic acid in aqueous acetone at 5-10°C are from Options 1, 2, and 3. Option 4 cannot be oxidized. ### Final Answer: The oxidation reactions that can be carried out are from Options 1, 2, and 3.
