Compound P(C8H8O) gives a red orange precipitate with 2,4-DNP reagent and it does not reduce Fehling's reagent. On drastic oxidation with chromic acid, P gives an aromatic product Q that produces effervescence on treating with aq. NaHCO3. Compounds P and Q, respectively, are :

1. P = [figure] ; Q = [figure]
2. P = [figure] ; Q = [figure]
3. P = [figure] ; Q = [figure]
4. P = [figure] ; Q = [figure]

Consider the following reaction, and choose the correct option. [figure]

1. Compound P is obtained by the hydrogenation of benzoyl chloride with Pd on BaSO4
2. On treating compound P with saturated NaHCO3 solution, brisk effervescence is observed
3. Compound P can be prepared by treating benzene with anhydrous AlCl3 and CH3COCl
4. On treating with bromine water, compound P gives a white precipitate
