Solution

Part (A)

The benzophenone is reduced to diphenylmethane in the presence ofZnHg/ conc.HCl. The reaction is known as clemmensen reduction.


A BenzophenoneDiphenylmethane(iii)Zn(Hg)/ conc. HCl


Part (B)
The benzaldehyde is reduced to phenyl ethanol in the presence of CH3MgBrfollowed by hydrolysis.


BBenzaldehyde1-Phenylethanol(iv)CH_3MgBr

Part (C)
The cyclohexanone is reduced to cyclohexanol in the presence of LiAlH4.


CCyclohexanoneCyclohexanol(i)LiAlH_4

Part (D)
The phenyl benzoate is reduced to benzaldehyde in the presence of DiBALH.


DPhenyl benzoate Benzaldehyde(ii)DIBALH
