Answer:
Explanation:
Friedel-Crafts acylation is a very effective way of attaching a hydrocarbon-based group to a benzene ring. Although the product is a ketone (a compound containing a carbon-oxygen double bond with a hydrocarbon group either side), it is easily converted into other things.
Sulfonation is a reversible reaction that produces benzenesulfonic acid by adding sulfur trioxide and fuming sulfuric acid. The reaction is reversed by adding hot aqueous acid to benzenesulfonic acid to produce benzene.
