Step-by-step solution
H ₂, Pd / BaSO ₄ , quinoline is well known reagent. Rosenmund's reaction (conversion of acyl halide to aldehyde) H ₂, Pd , BaSO ₄ is known as Lindlar's reagent and reduces triple bond to double bond (syn addition) giving cis product. Reagent has simultaneous action because usually reaction is not selective-follows radical mechanism.
