A) Rosenmunds reduction
B) Wolf-Kishner reduction
C) Clemmensens reduction
D)
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
An acid chloride, on reduction with \[Pd\text{/}BaS{{O}_{4}}\] in boiling xylene, gives aldehyde. \[\underset{Acid\,chloride}{\mathop{R--\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,--Cl}}\,\,\,+{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow[Xylene]{Pd/BaS{{O}_{4}}}\underset{Aldehyde}{\mathop{R--\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,--H}}\,\,+HCl\] This reaction is known as Rosenmunds reduction.
