The heating of phenyl methyl ether with HI produces

  1. iodobenzene
  2. phenol
  3. benzene
  4. ethyl chloride.

Answer

(2) phenol

Solution

As per NCERT, alkyl aryl ethers are cleaved at the alkyl–oxygen bond because the aryl–oxygen bond is more stable (partial double bond character due to resonance).

C6H5-O-CH3 + HI C6H5OH + CH3I

∴ Phenol and methyl iodide are formed (not iodobenzene).

Answer: (2)
