Why do Isopropyl aldehyde undergoes cannizzarro`s reaction and not aldol condensation even due to the presence of alpha-hyderogen in its molecule
Dear studentIn aldol a-H is lost as a proton thereby creating a negative centre i.e. carbanion.In case of isopropyl aldehyde there is formation of tertiary carbanion which is not stable and hence wouldn’t undergo aldol inspite of the presence of-H.
