Vedclass · Answer

(B) $1$. The starting material is an aromatic ether with a side chain containing an aldehyde and a hydroxyl group. $2$. Treatment with $NaBH_4$ reduces the aldehyde group to a primary alcohol,forming compound $(A)$,which is $4-methyl-2-methoxyphenoxy-1,2-propanediol$. $3$. Ozonolysis of the aromatic ring followed by oxidative workup breaks the aromatic system. $4$. The cleavage of the substituted benzene ring results in several fragments,including glycerol $(CH_2(OH)-CH(OH)-CH_2(OH))$ as one of the products $(C)$.

Identify the product $(C)$ from the given reaction sequence.
