Write a balanced equation for the conversion of C6H5CHOHCH3 to methyl ketone in the presence of I2 and NaOH.
The haloform reaction using I2 and NaOH is referred to as the "iodoform" test for methylketones. The test also gives positive results for compounds containing the -CH(OH)CH3 group. This results from the oxidation of the alcohol to the methyl ketone in the first stage. Write a balanced equation for the conversion of C6H5CHOHCH3 to methyl ketone in the presence of I2 and NaOH. Identify which species is being oxidized and which is being reduced.
The solution includes chemical structure drawings, explanations and reference in the Word file.
