Vedclass · Answer

(A) The reaction sequence is as follows:$1$. Iodobenzene reacts with $Mg$ in the presence of $Et_2O$ to form phenylmagnesium iodide (a Grignard reagent).$2$. Phenylmagnesium iodide reacts with $CO_2$ followed by acid hydrolysis $(H_3O^+)$ to yield benzoic acid.$3$. Benzoic acid undergoes electrophilic aromatic substitution with $Br_2/FeBr_3$. Since the $-COOH$ group is a deactivating and meta-directing group,the bromine atom will be substituted at the meta-position.$4$. The final product is $3$-bromobenzoic acid.

$A$. Formic acid	$I$. Rancid butter
$B$. Acetic acid	$II$. Vinegar
$C$. Butyric acid	$III$. Red ants
