MCQ
Phenylmethanol can be prepared by reducing the benzaldehyde with
- A$C{H_3}Br$
- ✓$Zn$ and $HCl$
- C$C{H_3}Br$ and $Na$
- D$C{H_3}I$ and $Mg$
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$Zn$ and $HCl$
b
Phenylmethanol can be prepared from benzaldehyde by treating it with zinc in presence of $HCl$. This is categorised as a reduction reaction as hydrogen is added to the molecule during this reaction.Given below is the chemical reaction for the same.
