When 3-methyl aniline is converted to 3-nitrotoluene, the following steps are involved. <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="image" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/img/question/physics/eaa3eb1714cf5cb6d8ab1ce2042b06c5-.png" /> Hence, (X) = NaNO2, HCl, 273 K (Y) = HBF4, (Z) = NaNO2, Cu, Δ

	X	Y	Z
(a)	$N a N O_{2}, H Cl$	$H B F_{4}$	$N a N O_{2}, C u, Δ$
(b)	$N a N O_{3}, H Cl 273 K$	$H F$	$N a N O_{3}, C u, Δ$
(c)	$N a N O_{2}, H Cl$	$C_{2} H_{5} O H$	$N a N O_{3}, Δ$
(d)	$N a N O_{3}, H Cl$	$N a O H$	$C_{6} H_{5} N O_{2}$

Q. Identify the reagents (X,Y,Z) used in the conversion of 3-methylaniline to 3-nitrotoluene. X Y Z (a) NaNO2​,HCl HBF4​ NaNO2​,Cu,Δ (b) NaNO3​,HCl273K HF NaNO3​,Cu,Δ (c) NaNO2​,HCl C2​H5​OH NaNO3​,Δ (d) NaNO3​,HCl NaOH C6​H5​NO2​

When 3-methyl aniline is converted to 3-nitrotoluene, the following steps are involved. Hence, (X)=NaNO2​,HCl,273K (Y)=HBF4​,(Z)=NaNO2​,Cu,Δ

When $3$ -methyl aniline is converted to $3$ -nitrotoluene, the following steps are involved.

Hence, $(X) = N a N O_{2}, H Cl, 273 K$

$(Y) = H B F_{4}, (Z) = N a N O_{2}, C u, Δ$
