उत्तर
The conversion of phenol to salicylic acid can be accomplished by kolbe reaction.

Phenol reacts with NaOH to form sodium phenoxide, which then reacts with CO2 followed by acidification to give salicylic acid (2-hydroxybenzoic acid). This is known as Kolbe’s reaction and introduces a –COOH group at the ortho position.
