What is Corey reagent?
Corey’s reagent is PCC (pyridinium chloro chromate) it’s a mixture of pyridine, HCl and CrO3 . It’s a mild oxidising agent. Oxides alcohols to corresponding aldehydes and ketones.
What does the reagent PCC do?
Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) is a milder version of chromic acid. PCC oxidizes alcohols one rung up the oxidation ladder, from primary alcohols to aldehydes and from secondary alcohols to ketones. In contrast to chromic acid, PCC will not oxidize aldehydes to carboxylic acids.
What does Na2Cr2O7 do in a reaction?
15.7: Conversion of Alcohols to Ethers – Symmetrical ethers can be prepared by treating the corresponding alcohol with a strong acid. KMnO4 and chromic acid (Na2Cr2O7, H3O+) oxidize secondary alcohols to ketones, and primary alcohols to carboxylic acids.
What is the formula of pyridinium Chlorochromate?
C5H5NHClCrO3
Pyridinium chlorochromate/Formula
Which alcohol is not oxidised by PCC?
PCC oxidizes 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. Similar to or the same as: CrO3 and pyridine (the Collins reagent) will also oxidize primary alcohols to aldehydes.
What is the major disadvantage of PCC?
PCC is more acidic than PDC, but acid-labile compounds can be oxidized in the presence of sodium acetate or other buffers such as carbonates. Another drawback is the formation of viscous materials that complicate product isolation.
What happens if 2 ENOL treated with PCC?
What is the product when 2-butanol is treated with PCC? Explanation: PCC is an oxidizing agent. It converts alcohols to ketones, but is not strong enough to convert primary alcohols to carboxylic acids.
Why is sulfuric acid used in oxidation of alcohols?
When oxidising primary alcohols, K2Cr2O7 is used because it’s a useful & readily available oxidising agent.
What is the silver mirror test used for?
Tollens’ test, also known as silver-mirror test, is a qualitative laboratory test used to distinguish between an aldehyde and a ketone. It exploits the fact that aldehydes are readily oxidized (see oxidation), whereas ketones are not.
What is the formula of Collins reagent?

Which alcohol is not oxidized by PCC?
What solvent should be used to run a PCC oxidation?
Chromic acid can be formed by dissolving sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) or chromium trioxide (CrO3) in aqueous sulfuric acid (H2SO4). PCC oxidation: This reaction uses pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) in an anhydrous solvent, typically dichloromethane (CH2Cl2).

Which is produced by the Corey Chaykovsky reaction?
The reaction of sulfur ylides with carbonyl compounds such as ketones or the related imines leads to the corresponding epoxides or aziridines. The reaction of sulfur ylides with enones gives cyclopropanes. Mechanism of the Corey-Chaykovsky Reaction. The ylides are generated in situ by the deprotonation of sulfonium halides with strong bases.
