Among the following product the products formed by the reaction of anisole with HI are
- Benzene + Methanol
- Phenol + Iodomethane
- Phenol + Methane
- Sodium phenate + Methanol
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Anisole, also known as methoxybenzene, is a compound with the formula \(\text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{OCH}_3\). When anisole reacts with hydrogen iodide \((\text{HI}),\) it undergoes a nucleophilic substitution reaction known as the \((\text{HI})\) cleavage reaction.
The reaction can be represented as follows:
\(\text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{OCH}_3 + \text{HI} \rightarrow \text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{OH} + \text{CH}_3\text{I}\)
In this reaction, the methoxy group \(-\text{OCH}_3\) of anisole is replaced by an iodine atom from \((\text{HI}),\) resulting in the formation of phenol \((\text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{OH})\) and iodomethane \((\text{CH}_3\text{I})\)
Therefore, the correct products formed by the reaction of anisole with \((\text{HI})\) are phenol and iodomethane (option B).

- Given below are two statements :
Statement I : The boiling point of three isomeric pentanes follows the order
n-pentane > isopentane > neopentane
Statement II : When branching increases, the molecule attains a shape of sphere. This results in smaller surface area for contact, due to which the intermolecular forces between the spherical molecules are weak, thereby lowering the boiling point.
