What is more reactive an aldehyde or an acid chloride?

An acid chloride is more reactive than an aldehyde due to the presence of a more electronegative Cl atom, which is better at stabilizing the resulting anion during a nucleophilic attack. Acid chlorides are known to rapidly react with various nucleophiles, whereas aldehydes are less reactive in comparison.

Do less reactive halogens displace more reactive ones?

No. More reactive halogens will replace less reactive ones in a compound. This is because a more reactive halogen is more stable in a compound relative to a less reactive one, while a less reactive halogen is relatively more stable in its elemental form.


In case of crossed cannizaro why does formaldehyde always get oxidised?

Formaldehyde is always oxidized in crossed Cannizzaro reactions because it is less hindered and more reactive than other aldehydes like benzaldehyde. This leads to formaldehyde being preferentially oxidized to formic acid while the other aldehyde is reduced to the corresponding alcohol.
