The reagent used for the conversion of allyl alcohol into propenal is
Options
- AO 3 / H 2 O - Zn dust
- BDIBAL - H
- CClO 2 Cl 2 / H 3 O +
- DC 5 H 5 NH + CrO 3 Cl -
Correct answer
D. C 5 H 5 NH + CrO 3 Cl -
Step-by-step solution
The reagent which is used for the conversion of allyl alcohol into propenal is C 5 H 5 NH + CrO 3 Cl - [ PCC (pyridinium chlorochromate)]. CH 2 = CH - CH 2 - OH Allyl   alcohol → PCC CH 2 = CH - CHO Propenal Here, the reagent used should convert - CH 2 - OH into - CHO (oxidation) without affecting the double bonds. PCC :
