Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 29 January (Evening Shift)

Phenol treated with chloroform in presence of sodium hydroxide, which further hydrolyzed in presence of an acid results

  1. Salicylic acid
  2. Benzene-1,2-diol
  3. 2-Hydroxybenzaldehyde
  4. Benzene-1,3-diol

Answer

(3) 2-Hydroxybenzaldehyde

Solution

Reimer–Tiemann reaction:

[figure]

∵ dichlorocarbene (:CCl2) attacks the ortho position of phenoxide; the -CHCl2 group is hydrolysed to –CHO.

(1): salicylic acid ⇒ needs CCl4/NaOH or CO2 (Kolbe) ⇒ (1) is wrong

(2), (4): diols ⇒ no second –OH is introduced ⇒ (2), (4) are wrong

Answer: (3)
