how to prepare benzoquinone from benzene. let's talk and study chem/xza-bxok-bae​

Answer 1

Answer:

1,4-Benzoquinone, commonly known as para-quinone, is a chemical compound with the formula C6H4O2. In a pure state, it forms bright-yellow crystals with a characteristic irritating odor, resembling that of chlorine, bleach, and hot plastic or formaldehyde. This six-membered ring compound is the oxidized derivative of 1,4-hydroquinone.[4] The molecule is multifunctional: it exhibits properties of a ketone, being able to form oximes; an oxidant, forming the dihydroxy derivative; and an alkene, undergoing addition reactions, especially those typical for α,β-unsaturated ketones. 1,4-Benzoquinone is sensitive toward both strong mineral acids and alkali, which cause condensation and decomposition of the compound.

• Phenol on oxidation with potassium dichromate in acidic medium gives benzoquinone ( cyclohexa-2 )
• The equation is :-
• C6H6O + 2[O] → C4H4O2 + H2O
