MCQ
Cannizaro' s reaction is not given by
- A
- B
- ✓$CH_3CHO$
- D$HCHO$
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$CH_3CHO$
c
Only those aldehydes which do not have $\alpha - H$ atom undergo Cannizaro's reaction. Hence $CH_3CHO$ will not undergo Cannizaro's reaction as it has $3\,\alpha $ $H$ atoms.
Only those aldehydes which do not have $\alpha - H$ atom undergo Cannizaro's reaction. Hence $CH_3CHO$ will not undergo Cannizaro's reaction as it has $3\,\alpha $ $H$ atoms.
