    The most suitable reagent for the conversion of \[RC{{H}_{2}}OH\to RCHO\]is:

    A) \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]

    B) \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\]

    C) \[Cr\,{{O}_{3}}\]

    D) \[PCC\text{ (}pyridinium\text{ }chlorochromate\text{)}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] PCC (pyridinium chloro chromate) A number of reagents used for oxidation of \[{{1}^{{}^\circ }}\]alcohol to aldehydes. Some of them are sarett reagent, Jone's reagent, collin's reagent, corcy's reagent, but PCC is more commonly and widely used. \[\underset{~{{1}^{{}^\circ }}alcohol}{\mathop{R-C{{H}_{2}}-OH}}\,\xrightarrow[(PCC)]{\operatorname{Re}\,agent}\underset{aldehyde}{\mathop{R-CH=O}}\,\]
