Match List-I with List-II :

  1. A-I, B-III, C-IV, D-II
  2. A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I
  3. A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
  4. A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV

Answer

(3) A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I

Solution

A. Cumene → phenol: (i) O2 (air) oxidises cumene to cumene hydroperoxide; (ii) H2O/H+ converts it to phenol and acetone (NCERT) → II

B. CH3COOH CH3OH, H+ CH3COOCH3 H2, catalyst CH3CH2OH (esterification, then catalytic hydrogenation of the ester) → III

C. CH3CH2CH2OH conc. H2SO4, CH3CH=CH2; acid-catalysed hydration (Markovnikov) gives propan-2-ol → IV

D. Benzene → phenol: (i) oleum gives benzenesulphonic acid; (ii) NaOH fusion gives sodium phenoxide; (iii) H+ gives phenol → I

∴ A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I

Answer: (3)
