The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the products of the reactions involving benzene (C₆H₆), let's analyze each reaction step by step. ### Step 1: Reaction of Benzene with Methyl Chloride in Presence of AlCl₃ - **Reaction Type**: This is a Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. - **Mechanism**: Methyl chloride (CH₃Cl) reacts with aluminum chloride (AlCl₃) to form a methyl cation (CH₃⁺), which acts as an electrophile. The methyl cation then attacks the benzene ring, resulting in the substitution of a hydrogen atom by a methyl group. - **Product**: The product of this reaction is **Toluene (C₇H₈)**. ### Step 2: Reaction of Benzene with Acetyl Chloride in Presence of AlCl₃ - **Reaction Type**: This is a Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction. - **Mechanism**: Acetyl chloride (CH₃COCl) reacts with aluminum chloride (AlCl₃) to form an acetyl cation (CH₃C⁺O), which acts as an electrophile. The acetyl cation attacks the benzene ring, leading to the substitution of a hydrogen atom by an acetyl group. - **Product**: The product of this reaction is **Acetophenone (C₈H₈O)**. ### Step 3: Reaction of Benzene with Fuming Nitric Acid in Presence of Concentrated H₂SO₄ - **Reaction Type**: This is a nitration reaction. - **Mechanism**: Fuming nitric acid (HNO₃) in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) generates the nitronium ion (NO₂⁺), which acts as an electrophile. The nitronium ion attacks the benzene ring, leading to the substitution of a hydrogen atom by a nitro group. - **Product**: The product of this reaction is **Trinitrobenzene (C₆H₃(NO₂)₃)**, as three nitro groups can be introduced on the benzene ring. ### Step 4: Catalytic Hydrogenation of Benzene - **Reaction Type**: This is a hydrogenation reaction. - **Mechanism**: Benzene (C₆H₆) is treated with hydrogen gas (H₂) in the presence of a catalyst such as nickel, platinum, or palladium. The double bonds in benzene are broken, and hydrogen atoms are added to each carbon atom. - **Product**: The product of this reaction is **Cyclohexane (C₆H₁₂)**. ### Summary of Products 1. **Toluene (C₇H₈)** from the reaction with methyl chloride. 2. **Acetophenone (C₈H₈O)** from the reaction with acetyl chloride. 3. **Trinitrobenzene (C₆H₃(NO₂)₃)** from the reaction with fuming nitric acid. 4. **Cyclohexane (C₆H₁₂)** from catalytic hydrogenation.
