Question

In the synthesis of glycerol from propene, the intermediates involved are: (A) Allyl chloride, gamma allyl alcohol and β-monochlorohydrin (B) Glycerol trichloride and glycerol &alpha;-chlorohydrin (C) Allyl alcohol and α-chlorohydrin (D) Allyl alcohol and monosodium glycerolate

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Initially propene reacts with chlorine to form allyl chloride.
Now, allyl chloride reacts with sodium hydroxide to form allyl alcohol which later on react with

H OCl

forms monochloro hydrin and this later on reaction with sodium hydroxide to form glycerol.
Synthesis of glycerol from propene involves following steps
