Which type of reaction can be performed on reaction of (CH_(3))_(3)CH with KMnO_(4) ? Why ? |

Answer» Solution :`UNDERSET("2-Methyl propane")((CH_(3))_(3)CH)OVERSET(KMnO_(4))RARR underset("2-Methyl propane-2-ol")((CH_(3))_(3)C-OH)` This is a kind of oxidation of alkane. `H_(3)C -underset(" "H)underset(" "|)overset(" "CH_(3))overset(" "|)(""^(3^(@)C))-CH_(3) overset(KMnO_(4))rarr H_(3)C-underset(" "OH)underset(" "|)overset(" "CH_(3))overset(" "|)(""^(3^(@)C))-CH_(3)` In this oxidation C of `CH_(3)` is -1 and in C-OH the oxidation NUMBER of carbon +1. Oxidation state of carbon changes from -1 to +1, means increases in oxidation state, so it is oxidation. |
