How can one alcohol give two different products?
- Primary propan-1-ol can give propanal or propanoic acid with acidified dichromate. Product removal changes how far oxidation proceeds.
- Choose distillation 蒸馏 for aldehyde 醛 or reflux 回流 with excess oxidant for acid.
Which conditions favour propanal from propan-1-ol?

Removing aldehyde limits further oxidation. Reflux with excess oxidant favours acid; phosphoric acid favours dehydration.
Use the alcohol structure
- Primary alcohols can oxidise to aldehydes and acids; secondary alcohols to ketones 酮. Tertiary alcohols resist these stated conditions.
- For propan-2-ol: CH₃CH(OH)CH₃ + [O] → CH₃COCH₃ + H₂O. Dichromate changes orange to green.
Propan-2-ol oxidises to propanone with the stated acidified dichromate conditions.

It is secondary, so oxidation gives a ketone.
Explain purification rather than naming it
- Distillation removes volatile material; reflux returns condensed vapour to the reaction mixture.
- Solvent extraction separates immiscible layers. A suitable anhydrous 无水的 salt removes residual water before final distillation.
Propan-1-ol + [O] → propanal + H₂O; propan-1-ol + 2[O] → propanoic acid + H₂O. Distil the aldehyde as it forms or use excess oxidant under reflux for acid.
Name the heating technique that returns condensed vapour to the reaction flask.

Reflux allows prolonged heating while limiting loss of volatile reactants/products.
Combine mass and IR evidence
- A molecular-ion m/z gives molecular mass for a singly charged ion; the largest peak need not be the molecular ion.
- Use provided IR data to identify possible C=O, O–H, N–H, C=C, C–H and C–X groups. A peak alone rarely identifies one structure.
Calculate Mr for C₃H₆O. Use C = 12, H = 1, O = 16.

Mr = 3×12 + 6×1 + 16 = 58. Both propanal and propanone have this value, so mass alone does not distinguish them.
Reject a competing structure
- C₃H₆O with C=O and a positive warm Fehling’s test fits propanal. Propanone has the same formula and carbonyl but fails that test.
- An acid gives CO₂ with carbonate and has a very broad O–H absorption as well as C=O. Record independent evidence and its limits.
“Every carbonyl absorption proves an aldehyde” is false. Ketones and carboxylic acids also have C=O; combine other evidence.
Use formula, spectra, chemical tests and reaction conditions together; distinguish purity evidence from structural proof.

The acid chemical test and two functional-group absorptions support the proposal together.
