The most suitable reagent for the conversion of primary alcohol into aldehyde with the same number of carbon is:

Aacidified$$ K_2Cr_2O_7 $$
Bacidified $$ KMnO_4 $$
Calkaline $$ KMnO_4 $$
Dpyridinium chlorochromate
Correct Answer

Solution

correct answer : D
a reagent named as pyridium chl;orochromate (PCC ) will carry out this reaction and its the most suitable reagent which can convert primary alcohol into aldehyde

PCC is a milder version of chromic acid. Essentially, what it does is oxidize alcohols one rung up the oxidation ladder, from primary alcohols to aldehydes and from secondary alcohols to ketones. Unlike chromic acid, PCC will not oxidize aldehydes to carboxylic acids.
