The conversion of propanal to propane is a reduction reaction. This involves the reduction of an aldehyde into a hydrocarbon. There are two methods namely:
1.Clemmesen reduction:The carbonyl group of aldehyde or ketone is converted into CH2 group by treating with Zinc-Amalgam(Zn-Hg) and concentrated hydrochloric acid.
2.Wolf-Kishner reduction:The carbonyl group is converted by the action of hydrazine(NH2-NH2) with KOH or NaOH in high boiling solvent such as ethylene glycol.
Conversion of propanal to propane can be done by any of the following steps.
CH3-CH2-CHO CH3-CH2-CH3.
