A) benzoin is converted into benzylic acid
B) benzaldehyde is converted into benzoin
C) benzyl is converted into benzylic acid
D) benzylic acid is converted into benzyl
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Benzylic rearrangement the conversion of benzyl into benzylic acid takes place \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}-\underset{Benzyl}{\mathop{\underset{O}{\mathop{\underset{|\,|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-\underset{O}{\mathop{\underset{|\,|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,-{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}\] \[\xrightarrow{+O{{H}^{-}}}{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}-\underset{\underset{Benylic\,acid}{\mathop{{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}}}\,}{\overset{OH}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}}\,}}}\,-COOH\]
