Answer:

The first stage of this reaction involves the 2-propanol reacting with benzophenone which involves the formation of the most stable carbocation, the reaction is then heated under high temperature and pressure to form benzopinacol, on cooling the benzopinacololone crystallizes out

Melting point of benzopinacolol= 184-186°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find attached the detailed step by step mechanism of synthesis of benzopinacololone
