Question

The reaction of toluene with Cl2 in presence of FeCl3 gives X and reaction in presence of light gives Y. Thus, X and Y are (A) X - benzyl chloride, T = m-chlorotoluene (B) X = benzal chloride, Y = o-chlorotoluene (C) X = m-chlorotoluene, Y = p-chlorotoluene (D) X-o- and p-chlorotoluene, Y = trichloromethyl- benzene

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Correct answer is (d) X-o- and p-chlorotoluene, Y = trichloromethyl- benzene

Q. The reaction of toluene with Cl2​ in presence of FeCl3​ gives X and reaction in presence of light gives Y. Thus, X and Y are

X - benzyl chloride, T = m-chlorotoluene

X = benzal chloride, Y = o-chlorotoluene

X = m-chlorotoluene, Y = p-chlorotoluene

X-o- and p-chlorotoluene, Y = trichloromethyl- benzene

Correct answer is (d) X-o- and p-chlorotoluene, Y = trichloromethyl- benzene

Q. The reaction of toluene with $C l_{2}$ in presence of $F e C l_{3}$ gives X and reaction in presence of light gives Y. Thus, X and Y are
