Identify the primary functional group conversion when benzene reacts with CH3Cl in the presence of anhydrous AlCl3 to form product P, which is then oxidized with alkaline KMnO4 to form Q, and finally treated with SOCl2 to form R.
- 1P is a carboxylic acid, Q is an ester, R is an alkyl chloride
- 2P is an alkylbenzene, Q is an aldehyde, R is an acyl chloride
- 3P is a ketone, Q is an alcohol, R is an alkyl chloride
- 4P is an alkylbenzene, Q is a carboxylic acid, R is an acyl chloride✓
Correct answer
P is an alkylbenzene, Q is a carboxylic acid, R is an acyl chloride
