Solution

The correct option is D Cannizzaro reaction

Cannizzaro reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the base-induced disproportionation of an aldehyde lacking a hydrogen atom in the alpha position.
The oxidation product is a salt of a carboxylic acid and the reduction product is an alcohol.

The Reimer Tiemann reaction is a chemical reaction used for the ortho-formylation of phenols with the simplest example being the conversion of phenol to salicylaldehyde.

From the above examples it is clear that in Cannizzaro reaction C-C bond formation won't takes place.

Option D is correct.
