Question

convert benzaldehyde to benzoic acid

Answer 1

BENZALDEHYDE IS OXIDIZED IN THE PRESENCE OF POTASSIUM PERMAGNATE BENZOIC ACID IS OBTAINED

Answer 2

Conversion of benzaldehyde to benzoic acid

• The main principle considered for the conversion of benzaldehyde to benzoic acid is the presence of benzene ring in benzaldehyde.
• As benzaldehyde posses a benzene ring it facilitates electrophilic substitution reaction.
• Accordingly, when benzaldehyde is treated with alkaline permanganate it gets oxidized to benzoic acid.
• The formula for compounds involved in the reaction are as follows:

1. Benzaldehyde - $C_6H_5CHO$
2. Benzoic acid - $C_6H_5COOH$

• The chemical equation for conversion of benzaldehyde to benzoic acid is as follows:

$C_{6} H_{5} \mathrm{CHO} \stackrel{[O]}{\longrightarrow} C_{6} H_{2} \mathrm{COOH}$
