1.1. You are provided with the following selection of organic compounds, to investigate using test-tube reactions.

Figure 1

State the simple test-tube reaction which could be done to distinguish between Compound B and Compound C, including the observations that could be made.

1.2. State the simple test-tube reactions that could be done to distinguish between Compound A and Compound D from part (a), including the observations that could be made.

1.3. Compound D in part (a) can be formed from an alcohol if the correct reagents and conditions are used for the reaction.

i) State the reagents, conditions and any observations that would be made during the above reaction.

ii) Give the IUPAC name of the alcohol which would need to be used and write an equation using structural formulae for the reaction. 

1.4. A student claims to have fully oxidised a different primary alcohol than that in part (c). The student analysed their product and obtained the following IR spectrum.

Figure 2

Use the spectrum in Figure 2 to suggest whether full oxidation has taken place.
