Cannizzaro reaction is not shown by

Options

  1. ACH ₃ CHO
  2. BHCHO

Correct answer

2

Step-by-step solution

The aldehyde/ketone, those do not contain -H atom; show Cannizzaro reaction. In CH ₃ CHO , carbonyl group is attached to C-atom having - H ; Hence, CH ₃ CHO do not show Cannizzaro reaction.
