Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

This problem is based on concept of Dakin's oxidation, which convert o-slicylaldehyde and to ortho hydroxy phenol.

Dakin's oxidation : The conversion of slicylaldehyde to 1, 2-dihydroxy benzene in presence of H₂O₂ is known as dakin oxidation. This reaction occurs as follow
