(A) p-O(2)N-C(6)H(4)COCH(3) is prepared ...

(A) `p-O_(2)N-C_(6)H_(4)COCH_(3)` is prepared by Friedel Crafts acylation of nitrobenzene.
(R) Nitrobenzene easily undergoes electrophilic substitution reaction.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The nitro group strongly deactivates the benene ring towards electrophilic substitution. Nitrobenzene does not undergo Friedel-Craft acylation reaction.

(A) Nitrobenzene undergoes Friedel-Craft reaction. (R) Friedel-Crafts reaction is an electrophilic substitution reaction.

Assertion: Aniline does not undergo Friedel Crafts reaction. Reason : Friedel Crafts reaction is an electrophilic substitution reaction.

Assertion (A) Friedel - Crafts reaction benzene with n - propyl chloride on heating produce isopropyl benzene Reason (R ) Benzene undergoes electrophilic substitution easily.

Assertion (A): Benzoic acid does not undergo Friedel-craft's reaction. Reaction (R): The carboxyl group is activating and undergo electrophilic substitution reaction.

Benzene and other aromatic hydrocarbons, though contain pi -bonds, yet they behave as saturated hydrocarbons. They are stable because of delocalisation of cloud. These undergo electrophilic substitution reactions as : C_(6)H_(5)-H + YZ to C_(6)H_(5)Y +HZ The reactivity of aromatic hydrocarbons towards electrophilic substitution depends upon the electron density in the benzene ring Which reagent cannot be used in Friedel Craft alkylation of benzene?
