The functional groups present in the product ‘X’ of the reaction given below are:
Show Hint
Reactions of aromatic ketones with \(\text{AlCl}_3\) can lead to rearrangements yielding phenolic intermediates.
- The key is identifying that one ring becomes hydroxylated while retaining the ketone carbonyl.

Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Nature of the Starting Material and Reagent
- The starting compound Ph – C = O – Ph (benzophenone) can undergo rearrangement or substitution in the presence of AlCl3.
Step 2: Product ‘X’ and Its Functional Groups
- The product formed contains a carbonyl group (C=O) and an aromatic hydroxyl group (–OH), indicating the compound now includes both a ketone function and a phenolic –OH.
Hence, option (2) correctly identifies the C=O and –OH functionalities.
