Question
A new carbon-carbon formation is possible in :
Options
A.Cannizaro′s reaction
B.Friedal - Craft′s reaction
C.Clemmenson reduction
D.Reimer-Tiemann reaction
Solution
Cannizaro′s reaction -
2 HCHO + NaOH(conc.) → CH3OH + HCOONa
No C - C bond is formed
Friedal - Craft reaction,
C - C bond is formed
Clemmensen reduction
No C - C ond is formed.
Reimer Tiemann reaction
C - C bond is formed.
2 HCHO + NaOH(conc.) → CH3OH + HCOONa
No C - C bond is formed
Friedal - Craft reaction,
C - C bond is formed
Clemmensen reduction
No C - C ond is formed.
