Question

Fig,

Consider the above reaction sequence, the product ‘C’ is

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

To determine the product 'C' in the given reaction sequence, let us analyze each step:

1. Step 1: Bromination of Hydroxybenzaldehyde 

The reaction begins with the bromination of hydroxybenzaldehyde. Since bromination is usually ortho-para directing due to the -OH group, bromine will add to the 5-position (ortho to the -OH group), forming compound 'A'.

1. Step 2: Formation of Oxime

Compound 'A' reacts with NH₂OH (hydroxylamine) to form an oxime at the aldehyde group, leading to the formation of compound 'B'.

1. Step 3: Beckmann Rearrangement

When compound 'B' is treated with P₂O_{5Δ, it undergoes a Beckmann rearrangement. This rearrangement converts the oxime into an amide, leading to the formation of compound 'C'.}

Based on the steps explained, the structure of 'C' can be deduced as follows:

Therefore, the correct answer is the amide corresponding to the reaction sequence provided.

Answer 2

The correct answer is (D) :
