Chapter 15, Problem 15.40AP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given oxidation process should be draw and identified from the starting molecule of aromatic aldehyde.

Concept Introduction:

Oxidation: Generally alcohols can be oxidized to aldehyde or ketone. The aldehyde can be further oxidized to carboxylic acid. In aldehyde oxidation the hydrogen bonded to the carbonyl carbon is replaced by a hydroxyl group. Moreover ketones do not have this hydrogen, do not react cleanly with oxidizing agents.

Aldehydes (RCHO) can be oxidized to carboxylic acid (RCOOH), and ketones are not oxidized under these conditions as they lack the critical (H) for the elimination to occur.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given oxidation process should be draw and identified from the starting molecule of aliphatic aldehyde.
