1) Oxidation of primary alcohols using PCC and CH2Cl2

2) Reduction of Acyl chlorides, esters, and nitriles:

Acyl chlorides react with lithium tri-tert-butoxyaluminum hydride (LiAlH(O-t-Bu)3) at low temperatures to give aldehydes.

Reduction of esters or nitriles to an aldehyde can be accomplished at low temperature using DIBAL-H
