Vedclass · Answer

(C) $I.$ Oxidation of $1$-phenylethanol $(C_6H_5CH(OH)CH_3)$ yields acetophenone $(C_6H_5COCH_3)$. This is correct.$II.$ Reaction of benzaldehyde with $CH_3MgBr$ followed by oxidation yields $1$-phenylethanol,not acetophenone. This is incorrect.$III.$ Friedel-Crafts acylation of benzene with acetyl chloride $(CH_3COCl)$ in the presence of anhydrous $AlCl_3$ yields acetophenone. This is correct.$IV.$ Distillation of calcium benzoate yields benzophenone,not acetophenone. This is incorrect.Therefore,statements $I$ and $III$ are correct.
