Question
Benzyl alcohol and sodium benzoate is obtained by the action of sodium hydroxide on benzaldehyde. This reaction is known as
- Perkin’s reaction
- Cannizzaro’s reaction
- Sandmeyer’s reaction
- Claisen condensation
The correct answer is: Cannizzaro’s reaction
Benzaldehyde on treatment with 50% aqueous or ethanolic alkali solution undergoes Cannizzaro’s reaction like (no -hydrogen atom) i.e., one molecule is oxidised and one is reduced with the formation of benzoic acid and benzyl alcohol respectively.
