Tertiary alcohols (3°) having atleast four carbon atoms upon drastic oxidation yield carboxylic acid with
one carbon atom less
two carbon atoms less
three carbon atoms less
All the above three options are correct.
B.
two carbon atoms less
3° alcohols are resistant to oxidation under drastic condition. They first form ketone and then acid by loosing one carbon at each step.
Acid having 2C is formed when 3° alcohol is oxidised under drastic conditions.
Lactic acid molecule has
one chiral carbon atom
two carbon atoms less
three carbon atoms less
asymmetric molecule
