A) Reimer-Tiemann reaction
B) Wurtz-Fittig reaction
C) Friedel-Crafts reaction
D) Cannizaros reaction
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Acetophenone can be prepared by Friedel-Crafts reaction. By treating benzene with acetyl chloride in presence of anhydrous aluminium chloride acetophenone is obtained. \[\underset{\text{Benzene}}{\mathop{{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}H}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} \text{Acetyl} \\ \text{chloride} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{ClCOC{{H}_{3}}}}\,\xrightarrow{Anhyd.AlC{{l}_{3}}}\]\[\underset{\text{Acetophenone}}{\mathop{{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}COC{{H}_{3}}}}\,+HCl\]
