Question
How is ketone obtained from an alcohol?
✓
Answer
When a secondary alcohol is oxidized with potassium dichromate and dii. $H _2 SO _4$ under controlled conditions, a ketone is obtained.
For example. when 2-propanol is oxidized with potassium dichromate and dii, $H _2 SO _4$ under controlled conditions, acclone (propanone) is obtained.
