According to Oppenauer Oxidation reaction, oxidation of secondary alcohol to ketone by reagent (X) in acetone takes place, what is "X" :
Show Hint
- Aluminium Hydroxide
- Amalgamated Zinc and Conc. HCl
- Conc. H\(_2\)SO\(_4\)
- Aluminium t-butoxide
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
In the Oppenauer Oxidation reaction, the reagent Aluminium t-butoxide is used to oxidize secondary alcohols to ketones in acetone. This reaction typically involves the selective oxidation of secondary alcohols while maintaining the stability of other functional groups.
