Q. Match the column $I$ with column $II$ and mark the appropriate choice.
Column $I$ Column $II$
(A) Clemmensen reduction (i) Conc. $KOH$
$(B)$ Rosenmund reduction (ii) $Zn/Hg +$ conc. $HCl $
$(C)$ Iodoform reaction (iii) $H_{2}/Pd-BaSO_{4}$
$(D)$ Cannizzaro reaction (iv) $NaOH +I_{2} $

Aldehydes Ketones and Carboxylic Acids

Solution:

Clemmensen reduction: $Zn \mid Hg +$ conc.HCl
Clemmensen reduction reduces Aldehydes and ketones to corresponding hydrocarbons.
Rosenmund reduction: $H _{2} / Pd - BaSO _{4}$
The Rosenmund reduction is used to prepare aldehyde from acyl halide.
Iodoform reaction: $I _{2}+ NaOH$
Idoform reaction used for the identification of methyl ketone.
Cannizzaro:Conc.$KOH$
Cannizzaro's reaction is a disproportionation reaction.
It is shown by the aldehydes or
ketones which do not have $\alpha$-hydrogen atoms.
