Potassium permanganate and potassium dichromate are very similar in their oxidizing abilities, however there are differences. If I want to convert 4-hexen-1-ol into 4-hexenoic acid, which would be the appropriate oxidizing agent to use? Explain your answer using equations that show the two different products that would form via the two different oxidizing agents.
