a. p-Nitrobenzene
b. p-Cyano benzoic acid

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To synthesize p-Nitrobenzene and p-Cyano benzoic acid starting from aniline and toluene respectively, we can follow these steps: ### Synthesis of p-Nitrobenzene from Aniline: 1. **Formation of Diazonium Salt:** - Start with **aniline (C6H5NH2)**. - Treat aniline with **nitrous acid (HNO2)**, which can be generated in situ from sodium nitrite (NaNO2) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). - This reaction will produce **benzenediazonium chloride (C6H5N2+ Cl-)**. ...
