Identify the products (P),(Q) and (R) formed from the following reactions.
Options
- A(P) : Benzene hexachloride (Q) : Hexachlorobenzene (R) : Cyclohexanol
- B(P) : Hexachlorobenzene (Q) : Benzene hexachloride (R) : Cyclohexenol
- C(P) : Benzene hexachloride (Q) : Hexachlorobenzene (R) : Cyclohexane
- D(P) : Hexachlorobenzene (Q) : Benzene hexachloride (R) : Cyclohexane
Correct answer
A. (P) : Benzene hexachloride (Q) : Hexachlorobenzene (R) : Cyclohexanol
Step-by-step solution
The ring delocalisation is permanently broken and a chlorine atom adds on to each carbon atom and forms benzene hexachloride. So, (P)= Benzene hexachloride (Q)= Hexachlorobenzene (R)= Cyclohexanol.
