Question
Give the reaction of chlorobenzene with Hydroxyl group.

Answer

$\rightarrow$ Chlorobenzene can be converted into phenol by heating in aqueous sodium hydroxide solution at a temperature of $623K$ and a pressure of $300$ atmospheres.

$\rightarrow$ The presence of an electron withdrawing group $(-NO_2)$ at ortho$-$ and para$-$ positions increases the reactivity of haloarenes.​​​​​​​

Image
$\rightarrow$ The effect is pronounced when $(-NO_2)$ group is introduced at ortho$-$ and para positions.
​​​​​​​However, no effect on reactivity of haloarenes is observed by the presence of electron withdrawing group at meta$-$position.

An aromatic compound $A ($Molecular formula $C_8H_8O)$ gives positive $2, 4-DNP$ test. It gives a yellow precipitate of compound $B$ on treatment with iodine and sodium hydroxide solution. Compound $A$ does not give Tollen's or Fehling's test. On drastic oxidation with potassium permanganate it forms a carboxylic acid $C ($Molecular formula $C_7H_6O_2),$ which is also formed along with the yellow compound in the above reaction. Identify $A, B$ and $C$ and write all the reactions involved.
