AI Generated Solution

To convert Nitrobenzene to m-Bromochlorobenzene, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Nitration of Benzene Start with Nitrobenzene (C6H5NO2). The first step is to perform a bromination reaction on Nitrobenzene. Since the nitro group (NO2) is a meta-directing group, bromination will occur at the meta position relative to the nitro group. **Reaction:** \[ \text{Nitrobenzene} + \text{Br}_2 \xrightarrow{\text{FeBr}_3} \text{m-Bromonitrobenzene} \] ...
