A) \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}OH+N{{H}_{3}}\xrightarrow[{{300}^{o}}C]{ZnC{{l}_{2}}}\]

B) \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{O}_{2}}+Z{{n}_{powder}}\xrightarrow{Alcoholic\,\,KOH}\]

C) \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}Cl+N{{H}_{3}}\xrightarrow[C{{u}_{2}}O,\,high\,\,pressure]{{{200}^{o}}C}\]

D) \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{O}_{2}}+6(H)\xrightarrow[HCl]{Fe+{{H}_{2}}O}\]

Correct Answer: B

Solution :

Aniline is not obtained as a major product by the reaction\[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{O}_{2}}+Z{{n}_{powder}}\xrightarrow{Alcoholic\,\,KOH}\]
