The synthesis of benzyl alcohol can be effectively achieved by reducing benzaldehyde. Multiple methods exist for this reduction, and the choice of method may depend on the desired purity and yield. Common techniques include catalytic hydrogenation and the use of reducing agents such as sodium borohydride or lithium aluminum hydride. For detailed procedures, consult organic chemistry textbooks or reputable online resources.

DH said:I try to find the synthesis of benzyl alcohol, but I can't get it. Can some one show me how to do the synthesis of benzyl alcohol, in detail.
Can someone give me the website to find the synthesis of benzyl alcohol
Thanks
