An aromatic simplest nitro compound A on reduction using Sn and HCl gives B. B undergoes carbylamine reaction. Identify A and B. Give any one use of compound A.

Answer»

Solution :(i) AROMATIC simplest nitro COMPOUND `C_6H_5NO_2`(A)
`C_6H_5NO_2 UNDERSET(6[H])overset(Sn"/"HCl)(to) C_6H_5NH_2+2H_2O`
`{:(C_6H_5NH_2+CHCl_3+3KOH overset(triangle)(to)C_6H_5+NC+3KCl+3H_2O),("Phenyl isocyanide "):}`
Therefore, Compound A is `C_6H_5NO_2 to " Nitrobenzene "`
Compound B is `C_6H_5NH_2 to " Aniline "`
(II) It is used to prepare aniline, ANTHRANILIC acid and suphanilic acid.
