Definition of Oxidation, what are the 3 changes that could happen to an organic compound?

  1. an incrase in the multiple bond order of the C

  2. addition of O to a C

  3. replacement of a H on a C by O


long story short: gain of an oxygen or loss of hydrogen

Jones Oxidation, reagent and what its used for

Reagent: CrO3+ Aq.H2SO4 + Acetone

Used for the oxidation of secondary alcohols that do not contain acid sensitive groups to form aldehydes

OR primary alcohols to produce carboxylic acids
