1
Q

Name the reaction and mechanism to convert Benzene to Phenyl[Ketone]

Give reagents / Catalyst / Conditions

A

ACYLATION

Mechanism= Electrophilic Sub.

Reagent: RCOCl
Catalyst : AlCl₃
Condition : Heat/Reflux

2
Q

Show via equations the role of AlCl₃ as a catalyst

A

RCOCl + AlCl₃ → [RCO]⁺ + AlCl₄⁻

AlCl₄⁻ + H⁺ → AlCl₃ + HCl
