Tertiary alcohols do not form esters when oxidized.
False
When a tertiary alcohol is oxidized, the product is not an ester. Tertiary alcohols do not readily undergo oxidation reactions to form esters due to their unique chemical structure. Tertiary alcohols are resistant to oxidation because the carbon atom carrying the OH group does not have a hydrogen atom attached but is bonded to other carbon atoms, making oxidation challenging.
