Suggest the reagent for the following conversion:
(PCC) The conversion involves the oxidation of a secondary allylic alcohol to an $\alpha,\beta$-unsaturated ketone.
Pyridinium chlorochromate $(PCC)$ is a mild oxidizing agent that selectively oxidizes primary alcohols to aldehydes and secondary alcohols to ketones without affecting carbon-carbon double bonds.
Therefore,the required reagent is $PCC$.
