- B(b)
- C(c)
- D(d)
Correct answer
D. (d)
Step-by-step solution
(A) Benzoin condensation When an ethanolic solution of benzaldehyde is heated with strong alkali like KCN or NaCN , we get benzoin. (B) Formation of phenolphthalein When phenol is reated with phthalic anhydride in the presence of concentrated H ₂ SO ₄ , it gives phenolphthalein, an indicator. (C) Fries rearrangement Phenyl benzoate when heated with anhydrous AlCl ₃ in the presence of inert solvent gives ortho-and para-hydroxybenzophenone. In this rearrangement, there is a benzoyl group migration from the phenolic o
