1. Halogenation 2. Nitration 3. Sulfonation 4. Friedel-Crafts acylation 5. Friedel-Crafts alkylation 6. Oxidation of methyl group 7. Reduction of nitro group
- Choose the starting material from the drop-down list - Enter the number(s) of the desired reactions in the order that you wish to use them without commas between - If a reaction is used more than once, enter its number each time you wish to use it Compound 1: 5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzenesulfonic acidStarting material: I phenol Reaction(s): 31
Compound 2: 1-bromo-4-nitrobenzene Starting material: __________Reaction(s): __________

Answer 1

I will use Friedel-Crafts reactions to synthesis it as explained vividly below

Step-by-step explanation:

The Friedel–Crafts reactions are a set of reactions developed by Charles Friedel and James Crafts in 1877 to attach substituents to an aromatic ring.Friedel–Crafts reactions are of two main types: alkylation reactions and acylation reactions. Both proceed by electrophilic aromatic substitution.
