Question
Predict the product of reaction of aniline with bromine in non-polar solvent such as \[\ce{CS2}\].
Advertisements
Solution

In non-polar solvent (such as \[\ce{CS2}\]) the activating effect of -NH2 group is reduced (due to resonance) and hence, mono substitution occurs only at o- and p-positions.

A colourless substance ‘A’ \[\ce{(C6H7N)}\] is sparingly soluble in water and gives a water soluble compound ‘B’ on treating with mineral acid. On reacting with \[\ce{CHCl3}\] and alcoholic potash ‘A’ produces an obnoxious smell due to the formation of compound ‘C’. Reaction of ‘A’ with benzenesulphonyl chloride gives compound ‘D’ which is soluble in alkali. With \[\ce{NaNO2}\] and \[\ce{HCl}\], ‘A’ forms compound ‘E’ which reacts with phenol in alkaline medium to give an orange dye ‘F’. Identify compounds ‘A’ to ‘F’.

Aniline dissolved in dilute HCl is reacted with sodium nitrate at 0 °C. This solution was added dropwise to a solution containing equimolar mixture of aniline and phenol in dil. HCl. The structure of the major product is:
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Benzenediazonium salt is prepared by the reaction of aniline with nitrous acid at 273-278 K. It decomposes easily in the dry state.
Statement II: Insertion of iodine into the benzene ring is difficult and hence, iodobenzene is prepared through the reaction of benzenediazonium salt with KI.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
