Draw the product of the reaction shown below. Use wedge and dash bonds to indicate stereochemistry where appropriate. Ignore inorganic byproducts. HO CrO3, H2SO4 acetone

Question

Anu Bhardwaj · Accepted Answer

Reagent: CrO₃, H₂SO₄ in acetone = Jones oxidation.

Outcome: Jones oxidizes a primary alcohol to the carboxylic acid.

So the product is the same carbon skeleton with the left-end –CH₂OH replaced by –CO₂H; all other stereocenters remain unchanged.
