    How will you convert benzoyl chloride into benzaldehyde?

    Consider the following statements. Formaldehyde cannot be prepared by Rosenmund reaction. Formyl chloride can not be reduced to give formaldehyde because of being unstable. Select the correct option.

    Assertion: Formaldehyde cannot be prepared by Rosenmund's reduction. Reason: Acid chlorides can be reduced into aldehydes with hydrogen in boiling xylene using palladium or platinum as a catalyst supported on barium sulphate. This is known as Rosenmund's reduction.
