Expert Solution

Step 1

Oxidation of primary alcohols :-

With strong oxidizing agents like acidified KMnO₄ or K₂Cr₂O₇ primary alcohols are first oxidised to aldehydes which further oxidised to carboxylic acids.

$R - C H_{2} O H \overset{(O)}{\to} R - C H O \overset{(O)}{\to} R - C O O H$

Primary alcohols can be oxidised to aldehydes with mild oxidising agents like pyridinium chloro chromate ( PCC ) in dichloro methane ( CH₂Cl₂ )

$R - C H_{2} O H \to_{C H_{2} C l_{2}}^{P C C} R - C H O$
