The reactions which produce alcohol as the product are :
  • (A)CHX4+OX2→ΔMoX2OX3\ce{CH4 + O2}\xrightarrow[\Delta]{\ce{Mo2O3}}
  • (B)2 CHX3CHX3+3 OX2→Δ(CHX3COO)X2Mn\ce{2CH3CH3 + 3O2}\xrightarrow[\Delta]{\ce{(CH3COO)2Mn}}
  • (C)(CHX3)X3CH→KMnOX4\ce{(CH3)3CH}\xrightarrow{\ce{KMnO4}}
  • (D)2 CHX4+OX2→Cu/523 K/100 atm.\ce{2CH4 + O2}\xrightarrow{\mathrm{Cu}/523\,\mathrm{K}/100\,\mathrm{atm.}}
  • (E)CHX3−CH=CH−CHX3→KMnOX4/HX+\ce{CH3-CH=CH-CH3}\xrightarrow{\ce{KMnO4}/\ce{H+}}
