In which of the following reactions acid chloride produces aldehyde?

Correct answer: A. Reaction with H2

  • A. Reaction with H2
  • B. Reaction with NH3
  • C. Hydrolysis
  • D. Reaction With alcohol

Explanation

When an acid chloride reacts with hydrogen gas (H2) in the presence of a suitable catalyst, such as palladium or platinum, it undergoes reduction to form an aldehyde. This process involves the addition of hydrogen across the carbonyl group, leading to the conversion of the acid chloride into an aldehyde.
