In Cannizzaro's reaction, what is the rate determining step ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`H-overset(O)overset(||)(C)-H+bar(O)H rarr H-underset(H)underset(|)overset(bar(O))overset(|)(C)-OH`

and `H-overset(O)overset(||)(C)-OH-CH_(3)O^(-)rarrHCOO^(-)+CH_(3)OH`
Transfer of hydride ion on to the carbonyl carbon is the rate determining step in the Cannizaro.s reaction.

What is the rate determining step in Cannizzaro's reaction?

Cannizzaro reaction involves

(A) In a multiple reaction, the rate determining step is the fast step. (R ) In multistep reaction order for each step can be defined.

Write the difference between elementary and complex reactions. What is rate limiting step ?

Cannizzaro's reaction is an example of auto oxidation

Aldehydes undergo disproportionation reaction in presence of aqueous NaOH. Simultaneous oxidation and reduction of a compound is scientifically called as disproportionation Aldehydes having no alpha -hydrogen show this reaction called Cannizzaro's reaction. Few exceptions are also there to this generalisation The reaction may be represented as C_6 H_5 -CHO C_6 H_5 underset(C_6 H_5 COONa +C_6 H_5 CH_2 OH) underset(|) CHO underset(Delta) overset(NaOH)to intramolecular cannizzaro reacation is also possible The aldehyde which show Cannizzaro reaction is :

Among the following compounds, some undergo aldol condensation , some undergo Cannizzaro reaction and the remaining undergo neither aldol condensation nor Cannizzaro reaction . Differentiate them and write the structures of the products of aldol condensation and Cannizzaro reaction. i) Benzaldehyde ii) Cyclohexanone iii) Methanal iv) Benzophenone v) 2- Methylpentanal vi) Butan - 1- ol vii) 2,2 - Dimethylbutanal viii) Phenyl acetaldehyde iv) 1 - Phenylpropanone
