Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Benzene is nitrated to give nitrobenzene, which on further treatment with \(CH_{3}COCl / AlCl_{3}\) will give

Statement II: \(NO_{2}\) group is a m-directing, and deactivating group.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer:
- A Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
- B Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
- C Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
- D Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Nitrobenzene does not give Friedel-Craft acylation since it is a highly deactivated ring.
