JEE Main 2026 Chemistry question
Consider the following reactions. Total number of electrons in the π bonds and lone pair of electrons in the product (X) is: CHO(CHOH)₄CH₂OH (glucose) → (i) HI, Δ (ii) V₂O₅/10-20 atm/773 K (iii) Benzoyl chloride/Anhyd. AlCl₃ → (X) Major product
Answer: (D)
Solution
Glucose with HI/Δ gives n-hexane; V₂O₅/high pressure/773 K aromatises it to benzene; Friedel–Crafts benzoylation gives
