JEE Advance - Chemistry (2021 - Paper 1 Online - No. 12)
The reaction of Q with PhSNa yields an organic compound (major product) that gives positive Carius test on treatment with Na2O2 followed by addition of BaCl2. The correct option(s) for Q is (are)




Explanation
PhSNa replaces F from o- and p-dinitro- fluorobenzene via nucleophilic aromatic substitution.
PhSNa replaces Cl from compound D via nucleophilic bimolecular substitution reaction.
In case of compound B and C, nucleophilic substitution is not possible neither by SNAr or SN2 . because, the electron withdrawing group is present at meta-position and halogen is attached to sp2-carbon.


Positive Carius test is given by compound containing halogen, sulphur and phosphorus. So, only compound A and D reacts with PhSNa to gives a positive Carius test on treatment with Na2O2 followed by addition of BaCl2.
