May 10, 2022 at 10:27 comment added Jason Starr I already wrote a counterexample to that as an answer to the following question: mathoverflow.net/questions/421209/… As a corollary of the local flatness theorem, a morphism from a Cohen-Macaulay space to a smooth space is flat if the fiber dimension is constant. When you apply this to your ring (under the hypothesis that it is Cohen-Macaulay) and to the ring $\mathbb{C}\{x_n\}$, you conclude injectivity of the "multiplication by $x_n$" map. In particular, the image of $x_n$ in your ring is not a zero divisor.
