Concept introduction:
Benzene derivatives have one or more substituents attached to the benzene ring. In such compounds, the root name is benzene. The ring is numbered so that the substituents attached to it, get the lowest locator numbers. Prefixes and locator numbers are used for writing the number and type of substituents. In the case of disubstituted benzene, the prefixes ortho, meta, and para are used to indicate the relative positions of the two substituents. In the case of ortho disubstituted benzene, the position of the two substituents is 1, 2. In the case of meta disubstituted benzene, the position of the two substituents is 1, 3. In the case of para disubstituted benzene, the position of the two substituents is 1, 4.

- Using what we have learned in CHEM 2310 and up through class on 1/31, propose a series of reaction steps to achieve the transformation below. Be sure to show all reagents and intermediates for full credit. You do not need to draw mechanism arrows, but you do need to include charges where appropriate. If you do not put your group name, you will get half credit at most. ?
