Vicinal diols can also be oxidized to form aldehydes and ketones by lead tetraacetate. This oxidation cleavage is analogous to malaprade oxidation and is known as Criegee oxidation.
When Halohydrin is treated with Ag2O or Silver salt, it gives pinacol-pinacolone type rearrangement called semi-pinacol rearrangement.
List-I contains reactions and List-II contains products that can be formed.
Which of the following options has the correct combination considering reaction in List-I and their product(s) in List-II?

- (II)→(U) and (IV)→(S)
- (II)→(P), (U) and (IV)→(Q), (R), (S)
- (II)→(P)(U) and (IV)→(R)
- I > II > III
- II > III > I
- III > II > I
- All will be oxidized at the same rate.
For oxidizing alcohols, several oxidants – each with a multivalent central atom as the active species – can be used. When Dess-Martin periodinane (DMP), with I as the multivalent atom is used, how many bonds to oxygen atoms does each central multivalent atom have just before and immediately after the oxidation respectively?
7 – before, 5 – after
6 – before, 4 – after
5 – before, 3 – after
4 – before, 2 – after
