In Cannizzaro's reaction, what is the rate determining step ? |
Answer» Solution :`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. |
