[figure] Consider the above sequence of reactions. The number of bromine atom(s) in the final product (P) will be :

  1. 6
  2. 5
  3. 1
  4. 3

Answer

(2) 5

Solution

Step (1): –NO2 is a deactivating, meta-directing group m-bromonitrobenzene.

[figure]

Steps (2), (3): Sn/HCl reduces –NO2 to –NH3+ (anilinium salt); neutralisation frees the amine m-bromoaniline.

[figure]

Step (4): –NH2 is strongly activating and o/p-directing; bromine water substitutes all free o- and p-positions (2, 4, 6) 2,3,4,6-tetrabromoaniline.

[figure]

Steps (5), (6): diazotisation gives the diazonium salt ArN2 Br ; Sandmeyer reaction (CuBr) replaces – N2 by –Br pentabromobenzene.

[figure]

P (C6HBr5) contains 5 bromine atoms.
