Chapter 23, Problem 23.48P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The way in which the given synthesis takes place has to be shown.

Concept introduction:

Nitration: In nitration reaction, one nitro group $\left(-N{O}_2\right)$ is introduced to an organic molecule. Mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid is used for nitration.

Reduction: If electrons are gained to a species or hydrogen atoms are added to a species or oxygen atom gets removed from a species during a chemical reaction is known as reduction

Diazotization: It is chemical process where a primary amine gets converted to a diazonium ion $\left({\text{ArN}}_{\text{2}}{}^{+}{\text{ or RN}}_{\text{2}}{}^{+}\text{ ion}\right)$. Primary amine reacts with $NaN{O}_2$ and $HCl$ forming the corresponding diazonium ion.
