Question

Using anhydrous AlCl3 as catalyst, which one of the following reactions produce ethylbenzene (PhEt)? (A)  H3C-CH2OH+C6H6  (B)  CH3-CH=CH2+C6H6  (C)  H2C=CH2+C6H6  (D)  H3C-CH3+C6H6

By the reaction of benzene with ethylene in presence of anhydrous. AlCl3, ethylbenzene is produced.

Q. Using anhydrous $A lC l_{3}$ as catalyst, which one of the following reactions produce ethylbenzene (PhEt)?

$H_{3} C - C H_{2} O H + C_{6} H_{6}$

$C H_{3} - C H = C H_{2} + C_{6} H_{6}$

$H_{2} C = C H_{2} + C_{6} H_{6}$

$H_{3} C - C H_{3} + C_{6} H_{6}$

By the reaction of benzene with ethylene in presence of anhydrous. $A lC l_{3},$ ethylbenzene is produced.

Q. Using anhydrous AlCl3​ as catalyst, which one of the following reactions produce ethylbenzene (PhEt)?

H3​C−CH2​OH+C6​H6​

CH3​−CH=CH2​+C6​H6​

H2​C=CH2​+C6​H6​

H3​C−CH3​+C6​H6​
