Vedclass · Answer

(A, D) The conversion of propanoic acid $(CH_{3}CH_{2}COOH)$ to the cyclic acetal $(CH_{3}CH_{2}CH(OCH_{2}CH_{2}O))$ involves the following steps:$1$. Conversion of carboxylic acid to acid chloride using $SOCl_{2}$ or $PCl_{5}$.$2$. Reduction of acid chloride to aldehyde using $LiAlH_{4}$ (at low temperature) or Rosenmund reduction $(H_{2}/Pd-BaSO_{4})$.$3$. Protection of the aldehyde group by forming a cyclic acetal using ethylene glycol in the presence of an acid catalyst.Both options $(A)$ and $(D)$ describe valid pathways for this transformation, as $SnCl_{2}/HCl$ is also a standard reagent for the reduction of acid chlorides to aldehydes (Stephen reduction).

List-$I$	List-$II$
$(P)$ Etard reaction	$(1)$ Acetophenone $\xrightarrow{Zn-Hg, HCl}$
$(Q)$ Gattermann reaction	$(2)$ Toluene $\xrightarrow[(ii) SOCl_2]{(i) KMnO_4, KOH}$
$(R)$ Gattermann-Koch reaction	$(3)$ Benzene $\xrightarrow[\text{anhyd. } AlCl_3]{CH_3Cl}$
$(S)$ Rosenmund reduction	$(4)$ Aniline $\xrightarrow[273-278 \ K]{NaNO_2 / HCl}$
	$(5)$ Phenol $\xrightarrow[Zn, \Delta]{ }$

The conversion of $CH_{3}CH_{2}COOH$ to the product shown below can be accomplished by:
$CH_{3}CH_{2}CH(OCH_{2}CH_{2}O)$
