Vedclass · Answer

(C) The given reaction is a Cannizzaro reaction because $3-	ext{chlorobenzaldehyde}$ does not have any $\alpha-	ext{hydrogen}$ atoms.In the presence of concentrated alkali $(50\% 	ext{KOH})$,aldehydes lacking $\alpha-	ext{hydrogen}$ undergo self-oxidation and reduction (disproportionation) to form a mixture of the corresponding alcohol and the salt of the carboxylic acid.$2 	ext{C}_6	ext{H}_4(	ext{Cl})	ext{CHO} + 	ext{KOH}$ $ightarrow 	ext{C}_6	ext{H}_4(	ext{Cl})	ext{CH}_2	ext{OH} + 	ext{C}_6	ext{H}_4(	ext{Cl})	ext{COOK}$Thus,$3-	ext{chlorobenzaldehyde}$ produces $3-	ext{chlorobenzyl alcohol}$ and $3-	ext{chlorobenzoate}$ ion.
