Benzene undergoes both Friedel-Crafts alkylation and acylation reactions, with long n-alkyl chains, often rearranged products are obtained. Therefore, to prepare benzene derivatives with n-alkyl chains either Friedel-Crafts acylation or some other suitable method is employed.
Using anhydrous AiCl, as catalyst, which one of the following reactions produces ethylbenzene (PhEt)?

A

`CH_3CH_2 OH + C_6H_6`

B

`CH_3CH = CH_2 + C_6H_6`

C

`H_2C = CHCl + C_6H_6`

D

`CH_3 - CH_3 + C_6H_6`
