Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

(a)-(ii), (b)-(iii), (c)-(iv), (d)-(i)

Solution :

The correct option is (a)-(ii), (b)-(iii), (c)-(iv), (d)-(i).


Let us analyze each chemical reaction shown in List - I and match it with its corresponding name in List - II based on the provided image:


(a) Conversion of Benzene to Benzaldehyde:

In reaction (a), Benzene reacts with carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen chloride (HCl) in the presence of anhydrous aluminium chloride (AlCl3) and cuprous chloride (CuCl). This is the standard Gattermann-Koch reaction used to synthesize benzaldehyde.

Therefore, (a) matches with (ii).


(b) Reaction of Methyl Ketones with Sodium Hypohalite:

In reaction (b), a methyl ketone (R-C(=O)-CH3) is treated with sodium hypohalite (NaOX). This is the characteristic Haloform reaction, which oxidizes methyl ketones into carboxylate salts and forms haloform (CHX3).

Therefore, (b) matches with (iii).


(c) Reaction of Alcohol with Carboxylic Acid:

In reaction (c), a primary alcohol (R-CH2-OH) reacts with a carboxylic acid (R'COOH) in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid (Conc. H2SO4). This dehydration condensation reaction yields an ester and water, known as Esterification.

Therefore, (c) matches with (iv).


(d) Halogenation of Aliphatic Carboxylic Acids:

In reaction (d), a carboxylic acid containing an α-hydrogen (R-CH2COOH) is treated with halogen (X2) in the presence of red phosphorus (Red P), followed by hydrolysis with H2O. This reaction selectively halogenates the α-position and is known as the Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky (HVZ) reaction.

Therefore, (d) matches with (i).


Combining all the correct matches gives:

(a) → (ii)
(b) → (iii)
(c) → (iv)
(d) → (i)


Thus, the correct option matching List - I with List - II is (a)-(ii), (b)-(iii), (c)-(iv), (d)-(i).
