    Yes, both reactions look to be the same, but they are not. To convert benzene to benzaldehyde, the Gatterman-Koch reaction is performed. Benzene is treated with an acid chloride in the presence of anhydrous AlCl3 in acylation processes. The Gatterman-Koch reaction is used to make HCOCl in situ by reacting CO with HCl gas in the presence of anhydrous AlCl3.
