Answer:
Carbonyl compounds having no α−hydrogen will undergo Cannizzaro reaction.
Out of the above-given options, A, B and D none of them have alpha hydrogen. So, all can undergo Cannizzaro reaction.
Option C compound is known as chloral because in presence of base chloral gives chloroform, which is not Cannizzaro product.
