$2-$chloro$-5-$bromotoluene

Vedclass · Answer

(C) The reaction sequence is as follows:$1$. $p$-Nitrotoluene reacts with $Cl_2/AlCl_3$ to give $2$-chloro-$4$-nitrotoluene $(A)$.$2$. Reduction of $A$ with $Fe/HCl$ followed by $NaOH$ gives $2$-chloro-$4$-aminotoluene $(B)$.$3$. Acetylation of $B$ with acetic anhydride (implied) gives $2$-chloro-$4$-acetamidotoluene $(C)$.$4$. Bromination of $C$ with $Br_2/FeBr_3$ gives $2$-chloro-$4$-acetamido-$5$-bromotoluene $(D)$.$5$. Hydrolysis of $D$ with $NaOH$ gives $2$-chloro-$4$-amino-$5$-bromotoluene $(E)$.$6$. Diazotization of $E$ with $NaNO_2/H_2SO_4$ at $0-5^{\circ}C$ gives the diazonium salt $(F)$.$7$. Reduction of $F$ with $H_3PO_2/H_2O$ removes the amino group to give $2$-chloro-$5$-bromotoluene $(G)$.

List-$I$ (Compounds)	List-$II$ (Catalyst/Reagents)
$A$. $R-CONH_2$	$I$. $NaOH$ (aqueous)
$B$. $C_6H_5NO_2$	$II$. $H_2 / Ni$
$C$. $R-C \equiv N$	$III$. $LiAlH_4, H_2O$
$D$. $N$-alkylphthalimide	$IV$. $Sn,HCl$

Predict the major product $G$ of the following reaction sequence starting from $p$-nitrotoluene.
