Identify the correct reagent for Etard reaction.
Options
- ACrO ₂ Cl ₂, H ₃ O ⁺
- BPd - BaSO ₄
- CCrO ₃, H ₃ O ⁺
- DSnCl ₂, HCl
Correct answer
A. CrO ₂ Cl ₂, H ₃ O ⁺
Step-by-step solution
The corfect reagent for Etard reaction is CrO ₂ Cl ₂, H ₃ O ⁺ . In case, the side chain contains a group higher than - CH ₃ group, the end carbon atom of the chain is oxidised by CrO ₂ Cl ₂ to - CHO group. e.g.
