Question
Compound \[\begin{array}{cc}
\phantom{.....}\ce{O}\\
\phantom{.....}||\\
\ce{Ph - O - C - Ph}
\end{array}\] can be prepared by the reaction of ______.
Options
Phenol and benzoic acid in the presence of \[\ce{NaOH}\]
Phenol and benzoyl chloride in the presence of pyridine
Phenol and benzoyl chloride in the presence of \[\ce{ZnCl2}\]
Phenol and benzaldehyde in the presence of palladium
Solution
Compound \[\begin{array}{cc}
\phantom{.....}\ce{O}\\
\phantom{.....}||\\
\ce{Ph - O - C - Ph}
\end{array}\] can be prepared by the reaction of Phenol and benzoyl chloride in the presence of pyridine.
Explanation:
When phenol reacts with acid chloride in the presence of an alkali, the alkali is pyridine, and the acid chloride is benzoyl chloride, compound \[\ce{C6H5OCOC6H5}\] is formed. During this process, pyridine is utilised to neutralise \[\ce{4HCl}\].
