Question

Aniline is converted to fluorobenzen. Write the equation for the reaction ivoved

Answer 1

Answer. First, Aniline is made to react with NaNO₂ in presence of HCl to form 'Benzene diazonium chloride' which is further reacted with Fluoroboric acid(HBF₄) to form Fluorobenzene along with the liberation of toxic BF₃.☺✌☺

Answer 2

Explanation:

The process of diazotization is used to convert aniline to phenol. Diazotization is a chemical reaction in which a primary amine is converted to a diazonium cation. This diazonium salt when treated with water at a high temperature gets converted to phenol.
