Question

Aniline is reacted with bromine water and the resulting product is treated with an aqueous solution of sodium nitrite in presence of dilute HCl. The compound so formed is converted into tetrafluoroborate which is subsequently heated dry. The final product is (A) p-bromofluorobenzene (B) p-bromoaniline (C) 2,4,6-tribromofluorobenzene (D) 1,3,5-tribromobenzene

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Correct answer is (c) 2,4,6-tribromofluorobenzene

Q. Aniline is reacted with bromine water and the resulting product is treated with an aqueous solution of sodium nitrite in presence of dilute $H Cl$ . The compound so formed is converted into tetrafluoroborate which is subsequently heated dry. The final product is

$p$ -bromofluorobenzene

$p$ -bromoaniline

$2, 4, 6$ -tribromofluorobenzene

$1, 3, 5$ -tribromobenzene

Correct answer is (c) $2, 4, 6$ -tribromofluorobenzene
