Step 1:Toluene oxidation with kmno4

Kmno4 is a strong oxidising agent which oxidise toluene to benzaldehyde in 1st step.
The mechanism is shown below -

Step 2:kmno4 further oxidise Benzaldehyde to Benzoicacid. The mechanismis shown below.

Step 3:when we add socl2 in benzoic acid sn2 reaction occur as a result benzoyl chloride formed.the mechanism is shown -

Step 4:LiAl [Oc (CH3)3]H is a mild oxidising agent which oxidise benzoyl chloride to Benzaldehyde. The mechanism is shown -

Step 5:For protection of aldehyde we often used ch2ohch2oh in acidic medium. For deprotection purpose we use h3o+.the mechanism is shown below -
