Question

Everything I come up with is missing 2-3 steps, I can't seem to figure out a synthesis to produce 4-nitroaniline that would have the necessary number of steps in this problem.

Explanation / Answer

Benzene is converted to niro Benzne and then to Aniline now aniline is converted to p-nitro aniline conc H2SO4 Benzne ---------------> nitro Benzene HNO3 H3O+ nitro benzene ----------------> Aniline acetyl Chlroide Pyridine Aniline ---------------------------------> C6H5NHCOCH3 now again treating with conc. H2SO4 HNO3 elctrophilic aromatic substituio takes place to give p-nitro aniline H2SO4 HNO3 C6H5NHCOCH3 -------------------------> NO2C6H4NHCOCH3 H3O+ H2O NO2C6H4NHCOCH3 -----------------> p-Nitro Aniline
