(C) The conversion of propan$-2-$ol to propan$-1-$ol proceeds as follows:$1$. Propan$-2-$ol reacts with $PCl_{5}$ to form $2-$chloropropane.$2$. $2-$chloropropane undergoes dehydrohalogenation with alcoholic $KOH$ to form propene.$3$. Propene undergoes hydroboration-oxidation (reaction with $B_{2}H_{6}$ followed by $H_{2}O_{2}/NaOH$) to form propan$-1-$ol via anti-Markovnikov addition of water.
