In the Rosenmund's reduction , `BaSO_(4)` taken with catalyst Pd acts as `:`

A

Promoter

B

Catalytic poison

C

Co-operator

D

Absorber

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Barium sulphate has a low surface area which reduces the activity of palladium, preventing over reduction. So `BaSO_4` act as a catalytic poison. If further reduction takes place, it will create a primary alcohol
