  2. B \(\mathrm{Sn}+\mathrm{HCl}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{H}_2 / \mathrm{Pd}, \mathrm{BaSO}_4\)
  4. D DIBAL-H
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) DIBAL-H

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

DIBAL-H is diisobutyl aluminium hydride. It is a reducing agent with formula \(\left[i-\mathrm{Bu}_2 \mathrm{AlH}\right]_Z\). It is used to convert ester into aldehyde. Hence, (d) is the correct answer.
