The Balz-Schiemann reaction adds fluorine to this molecule and the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction involves the base promoted carboxylation of one of its derivatives.
The Balz-Schiemann reaction adds fluorine to this molecule and the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction involves the base promoted carboxylation of one of its derivatives. The substitution of an amino group on this compound is achieved via a diazonium salt in the (*) Sandmeyer reaction. They can be linked in azo coupling and bromide can be added to this compounds using FeBr3 by electrophilic substitution. The fusion of two of these molecules produces naphthalene and the presence of a methyl group produces toluene. For 10 points, name this simplest aromatic hydrocarbon, C6H6.
