Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(A, B, D\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Acetophenone can be prepared as \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_6+\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COCl} \underset{\text { Friedel-Crafts reaction }}{\stackrel{\text { anhyd }\cdot \mathrm{AlCl}_3}{\longrightarrow}}$$\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{COCH}_3+\mathrm{HCl}\)
