The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The sequence first involves diazotization of aniline to form a diazonium salt.
Hydrolysis gives phenol, which undergoes Williamson ether synthesis to give anisole.
Bromination of anisole in acetic acid selectively yields para-bromoanisole as the major product.
