The most suitable reagent for the conversion of primary alcohol into aldehyde with the same number of carbon is

A

a) acidified `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)`

B

b) acidified `KMnO_(4)`

C

c) alkaline `KMnO_(4)`

D

d) pyridinium chlorochromate

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

For the conversio of primary alcohol into aldehyde with the same number of carbon, the most suitable reagent is pyridinium chloro chromate (PCC).
`RCH_(2)OHoverset(PC C)rarrRCHO`
Note : PCC is the mixture of pyridine, `CrO_(3)` and HCl in `1:1:1` ratio.
