Which of the following statement is correct?
Show Hint
In Reimer-Tiemann reaction, chloroform is used to introduce a formyl group (-CHO) in the ortho or para position relative to the hydroxyl group of phenol.
Updated On: Mar 7, 2025
- Bromination of phenol in CS\(_2\), at low temperature gives 2,4,6-tribromophenol.
- Oxidation of phenol with chromic acid gives benzene.
- Conversion of phenol into tribromophenol by bromine water is a nucleophilic substitution reaction.
- p-Nitrophenol is steam volatile due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
- The intermediate in Reimer-Tiemann reaction is substituted benzal chloride.
