Mechanism of the Cannizzaro reaction: possible involvement of radical intermediates

Abstract

The Cannizzaro reaction of [α-2H]benzaldehyde in alkaline aqueous dioxan or dioxan alone produces a substantial amount of [α-2H]benzyl alcohol together with the normal product, [α-2H2]benzyl alcohol, suggesting a possible partial involvement of radical intermediates.
