Identify the reagent $R$ used in the reaction stated below.
Benzene diazonium chloride $+\mathrm{R} \rightarrow$ Benzene
- $\mathrm{HCl}$
- $\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{PO}_2 / \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
- $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} / \mathrm{HCl}$
- $\mathrm{H}\mathrm{N}\mathrm{O}_3$
Solution
Benzene diazonium chloride can be converted to
benzene using $\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{PO}_2 / \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
