The products formed in the reaction of cumene with O 2 followed by treatment with dil HCl are:

Correct answer

Step-by-step solution

Cumene is an organic compound obtained by Friedel-Crafts alkylation of benzene with propylene. Upon oxidation of cumene (isopropylbenzene) in the presence of air, cumene hydroperoxide is obtained. Upon further treatment of cumene hydroperoxide with dilute acid, phenols are obtained
