Identify 'A' in the following reaction, \(\mathrm{A} \frac{\mathrm{H}_{2}}{\mathrm{Pd}-\mathrm{BaSO}_{4}}>\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{CH} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{HCl}\)
- A Benzoic acid
- B Benzyl chloride
- C Benzoyl chloride
- D Chlorobenzene
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Benzoyl chloride
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
When benzoyl chloride is hydrogenated in the presence palladium on barium sulphate \(\left(\mathrm{Pd} / \mathrm{BaSO}_{4}\right)\), benzaldehyde is obtained. This reaction is called Rosenmund reduction.
