The correct Answer is:
To complete the analogy between the two reactions, we will analyze each part step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the First Part (A) The first part of the analogy is about the replacement of a halogen by a hydroxyl group in arenes. 1. **Identify the starting compound**: The starting compound is a haloarene, specifically chlorobenzene (C6H5Cl). 2. **Reaction conditions**: The reaction is performed using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in the presence of heat (high temperature, around 675°C) and under pressure (300 K). 3. **Reaction process**: The halogen (Cl) in chlorobenzene is replaced by a hydroxyl group (OH) to form phenol (C6H5OH). 4. **Final product**: The final product of this reaction is phenol. This method is known as the **Dawes method**, which is an industrial method for the preparation of phenol. ### Step 2: Understanding the Second Part (B) The second part of the analogy involves the reaction of benzene with HCl over heated cupric powder. 1. **Identify the starting compound**: The starting compound is benzene (C6H6). 2. **Reaction conditions**: The reaction is conducted in the presence of HCl and cupric chloride (CuCl2). 3. **Reaction process**: Benzene reacts with HCl in the presence of CuCl2 to form chlorobenzene (C6H5Cl). 4. **Further reaction**: Chlorobenzene can then be treated with steam (H2O) to convert it into phenol (C6H5OH). 5. **Final product**: The final product of this two-step reaction is also phenol. This method is known as the **Rushing method**, which is another industrial method for the preparation of phenol. ### Conclusion Both methods lead to the formation of phenol from different starting materials (haloarene and benzene) through distinct reaction pathways. Thus, the complete analogy can be summarized as: - (A) Replacement of halogen by hydroxyl group in arenes (Dawes method) - (B) Reaction of benzene with HCl over heated cupric powder (Rushing method)
