Ester on reduction with LAH gives alcohols. PhCOOCH3 overset1 . L A H arrow PhCH2OH+CH3OH

Q. What are the organic products formed in the following reaction $C_{6} H_{5} COOC H_{3}$ $\to (1) L i A l H_{4}$

$C_{6} H_{5} - O H$ $&$ $C H_{3} - O H$

$C_{6} H_{5} - C H_{3}$ $&$ $C H_{3} - O H$

$C_{6} H_{5} - C H_{2} - O H$ $&$ $C H_{3} - O H$

$C_{6} H_{5} - C H_{2} - O H$ $&$ $C H_{4}$

Ester on reduction with $L A H$ gives alcohols. $P h COOC H_{3} \to 1. L A H P h C H_{2} O H + C H_{3} O H$
