(a)[3]
Chlorobenzene and phenol are both less reactive towards reagents that bring about breaking of the C-X bond (X = Cl or OH). Explain why.
(b)[2]
If phenol is treated with bromine in an inert solvent, two isomeric bromophenols, $\text{C}_6\text{H}_4\text{BrOH}$, are produced. Suggest structures for these compounds. Name each one.
(c(i))[3]
Suggest reagents and conditions for each of the following stages. step 1 step 2 step 4
(c(ii))[1]
Deduce the structure for $K$ and draw its structural formula in the box.
(c(iii))[1]
Name the mechanism for step 1.
(c(iv))[1]
Write an equation for step 2. Use $[\text{H}]$ for the reducing agent in this equation.
