Reactions which are catalysed by alkaline condition is :

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Phenoxide is generated in alkali and attacks benzenediazonium ion in azo coupling (I). In cyanohydrin formation (II), CN- attacks the carbonyl and the alkoxide is protonated. Hydrazone formation (III) is normally weak-acid catalysed, not alkali catalysed. Hence I and II.
