Expert Solution
Step 1

Starting from benzene, nitration would yield nitrobenzene and further reaction with xenon fluoride in DCM, reduction of nitro group changes to amine and fluorine is substituted at meta-position. This undergoes a diazonium reaction followed by treatment with HBF4 and heat (Scheizmann reaction) to give the desired product.
