Question

on oxidation primary , secondary and tertiary alcohol gives?

Answer 1

Hii dear here is your answer


Alcohol oxidation is an important organic reaction. Primary alcohols (R-CH2-OH) can be oxidized either to aldehydes (R-CHO) or to carboxylic acids (R-CO2H), while the oxidation ofsecondary alcohols (R1R2CH-OH) normally terminates at the ketone (R1R2C=O) stage. Tertiary alcohols(R1R2R3C-OH) are resistant tooxidation.

Primary Alcohols:

Primary alcohols are those alcohols where the carbon atom of the hydroxyl group(OH) is attached to only one single alkyl group. Some of the examples of these primary alcohols include Methanol (, propanol, ethanol, etc. The complexity of this alkyl chain is unrelated to the classification of any alcohol considered as primary. The existence of only one linkage among –OH group and an alkyl group and the thing that qualifies any alcohol as a primary.


Secondary Alcohols:

Secondary alcohols are those where the carbon atom of the hydroxyl group is attached to two alkyl groups on the either sides. The two alkyl groups present may be either structurally identical or even different. Some of the examples of secondary alcohols are given below-


Tertiary Alcohols:

Tertiary alcohols are those which feature hydroxyl group attached to the carbon atom which is connected to 3- alkyl groups. The physical properties of these alcohols mainly depend on their structure. The presence of this -OH group allows the alcohols in the formation of hydrogen bonds with their neighboring atoms. The bonds formed are weak, and this bond makes the boiling points of alcohols higher than its alkanes. The examples of tertiary alcohols include-
