The product ' $A$ ' is
- Correct answerA$\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{CHO}$
- B$\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{OH}$
- C$\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{COCH}_3$
- D$\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{Cl}$
Solution
In Rosenmund reaction, acid chloride reacts with $\mathrm{H}_2$ in the presence of $\mathrm{Pd} / \mathrm{BaSO}_4$ to yield aldehyde.
