The following reaction is an example of:
Correct answer: B. Acylation of benzene
- A. Alkylation of benzene
- B. Acylation of benzene
- C. Oxidation of benzene
- D. Halogenation of benzene
- E. Both A and B
Explanation
Since the acyl group is added to the benzene as a result of this reaction process we can say that it is an acylation of benzene.

About Aldehydes and Ketones
Aldehydes and ketones contain the polar carbonyl group, but aldehydes are generally more readily oxidised and more reactive than ketones. Coverage includes preparation by oxidation or reduction routes, nucleophilic addition of reagents such as hydrogen cyanide and bisulfite, and tests that distinguish aldehydes from ketones.
