Question

Which one of the following undergoes reaction with 50% sodium hydroxide solution to give the corresponding alcohol and acid

  1. Butanal    
  2. Benzaldehyde    
  3. Phenol    
  4. Benzoic acid    

The correct answer is: Benzaldehyde


    Benzaldehyde will undergo Cannizzaro's reaction on treatment with 50% NaOH to produce benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid as it does not contain proportional to-hydrogen
