  • question_answer
      Arrange the following compounds in decreasing order of coupling with benzenediazonium chloride.

    A) IV>I>II>III      

    B) II>I>IV>III

    C) II>IV>I>III      

    D) II>III>IV>I

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Coupling reaction between arenediazonium cation and an aromatic compounds which bear powerful electron-releasing groups like \[-OH,-N{{H}_{2}},-NHR,\] or \[-N{{R}_{2}}\], hence toluene, having weak electron-releasing\[-C{{H}_{3}}\]group cannot couple with diazonium cation.
