Answer #1

Option C can not produce benzoic acid

Explanation:

KMnO4 is a strong oxidizing agent which oxidises benzyl alcohol to benzoic acid. so option A is not answer.

KMnO4 is a strong oxidizing agent which oxidises benzylic carbon to benzoic acid so option B is nt answer.

Reaction of methyl ketone containing compounds with Cl2, OH- produces carboxylic acid as product. This reaction is called haloform reaction. so option D is not answer.

The nucleophile, OH- attacks the carbonyl carbon of acid chloride and produces benzoic acid as product. so option E is not answer.
