Detailed Solution

Cannizzaro, is a chemical reaction that involves the base-induced disproportionation of two molecules of a non-enolizable aldehyde to give a primary alcohol and a carboxylic acid.

Aldol condensation occurs in aldehydes/ketones having α-hydrogen with a dilute base to give β-hydroxy aldehydes called aldols.

If the condensation reaction occurs between two different aldehyde/ketone compounds it is called crossed aldol condensation.
