Lecture 3: | #alcohol , #phenol , #ethers | BSc 3rd Sem | Allahabad University I by S. Rathour

In Lecture 3 of BSc 3rd Semester Organic Chemistry, we continue the unit "Alcohol, Phenol, Ether and Epoxides" with two important topics: the oxidation of vicinal diols by periodic acid (HIO₄) and lead tetraacetate (Pb(OAc)₄), and the Pinacol-Pinacolone rearrangement. This video explains the reactions, mechanisms, examples and important exam points in a simple way. 📚 What you will learn: Oxidation of diols by periodic acid (Malaprade reaction) Oxidation of diols by lead tetraacetate (Criegee oxidation) Mechanism of diol cleavage (cyclic intermediate) What is the Pinacol-Pinacolone rearrangement Step-by-step mechanism (carbocation and 1,2-shift) Solved examples and important exam questions ⏮️ Lecture 2: Bouveault-Blanc Reduction [add Lecture 2 link] ⏭️ Next Lecture: Phenols – Preparation, Properties & Acidity 🎯 Who is this for: BSc 3rd Semester students (Allahabad University syllabus) 👉 Subscribe to S.
