Question

which one of the following compound is obtained by the oxidation of primary alcohol with nascent oxygen ?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes is partial oxidation; aldehydes are further oxidized to carboxylic acids.

Answer 2

Alkanal is obtained by the oxidation of primary alcohol with nascent oxygen.

During partial oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes, the aldehydes are further oxidized to carboxylic acids, and the conditions required for making aldehydes are heat and distillation. The temperature of an aldehyde reaction should not be higher than the aldehydes boiling point, nor lower than the alcohols boiling point.
