Q48.Identify compound (Z) in the following reaction sequence. JEE Main 2024 (05 Apr Shift 1) JEE Main Previous Year Paper (1) (2) (3) (4)

What This Question Tests

This question involves a multi-step reaction sequence starting from chlorobenzene. It requires recognizing the Gattermann-Koch reaction to form benzaldehyde, followed by the reaction with KCN and subsequent hydrolysis to form phenylacetic acid, and then a decarboxylation step to form toluene (Z). The provided options show a more complex sequence leading to various substituted aromatic compounds. Based on the options, the sequence for Z involves reacting benzaldehyde with HCN, followed by hydrolysis of the cyanohydrin, and then dehydration.
