It is possible to prepare Acrolein by heating glycerol with
sodium hydrogensulfate. what likely steps do you think are
involved in the synthesis?

Of course...It isn't really a huge synthesis
(⊙o⊙).....
it just involves elimination of two water molecules from
glycerol to give propenal (acrolein)

Yeah! but you know KHSO4 isn't quite a popular dehydrating
agent.
