Correct option: D.
Phenol
d When phenol is reacted with $NaNO 2$ and concentrated $H 2 SO 4$, it provides a deep green or blue color which changes to red on dilution with water. The generated substance in the presence of $NaOH / KOH$ restores the original green or blue color. This reaction is termed as Liebermann's nitroso reaction.
So, Liebermann's test is answered by phenol.
