Compound A whose molecular formula is C9H11ClO, is found to be aromatic, and on vigorous oxidation with hot, concentrated, basic potassium permanganate followed by acidification, a new aromatic, compound B with the molecular formula of C7H5ClO2 is formed. On treatment with bromine and a ferric bromide catalyst, compound B produces ONLY 2 monobrominated derivatives, compounds C and D, each having the molecular formula C7H4BrClO2. On treatment with sodium metal, compound A produces bubbles of hydrogen gas. Controlled oxidation of compound A with PCC first gives compound E, with formula C9H9ClO. Compound E produces a silver mirror with Tollen’s reagent. Mild oxidation of compound E by chromic acid produces compound F, with the molecular formula C9H9ClO2 which turns blue litmus red.
