1-Butanol is treated with PCC in CHX2ClX2. The main organic product is
Ano reaction
BCHX3CHX2COCHX3
CCHX3CHX2CHX2COOH
DCHX3CHX2CHX2CHO
Answer: D
PCC is a mild, anhydrous oxidant that stops at the aldehyde stage for a primary alcohol. 1-Butanol therefore gives butanal, CHX3CHX2CHX2CHO. Butanoic acid would need an aqueous oxidant such as Jones reagent.
