a-C2H5OH + PCC → CH3CHO,CH3CHO +CH3MgX → CH3CH(OMgX)CH3, CH3CH(OMgX)CH3 +H2O → CH3CH(OH)CH3,CH3CH(OH)CH3 + KMnO4 → Acetone,.
b-Ethanol is mixed with a strong acid, typically sulfuric acid, H2SO4. ... A nucleophilic oxygen atom of unprotonated ethanol displaces a water molecule from the protonated (electrophilic) ethanol molecule, producing water, a hydrogen ion and diethyl ether.
c-Acetaldehyde on oxidation gives acetic acid, CH3COOH. ... Calcium acetate on dry distillation gives acetone, CH3COCH3, which on reduction gives isopropyl alcohol, CH3CHOHCH3. 5. When the other part of acetic acid is refluxed with isopropyl alcohol in presence of H2SO4, the ester isopropyl acetate will be formed.
Hope it clears. If still u have doubts then please clarify. If u like answer then please approve the answer.
