Which of the following is not correctly matched?
Correct answer: A. Hydrolysis of phenyl magnesium iodide - phenol
- A. Hydrolysis of phenyl magnesium iodide - phenol
- B. γ-Isomer BHC - Lindane
- C. (4n+2)π rule - Aromaticity
- D. Trimerization of propyne - Mesitylene
Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: The hydrolysis of phenyl magnesium iodide does not produce phenol it's yield benzene making this option incorrectly matched. Option B is correctly matched, as the γ-isomer of BHC is indeed lindane. Option C correctly associates the (4n+2)π rule with aromaticity, a rule that helps identify aromatic compounds. Lastly, Option D is correctly matched because the trimerization of propyne leads to mesitylene.

About Chemistry of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons are studied through the structures and reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic compounds. Coverage includes free radical substitution in alkanes, electrophilic addition to carbon-carbon multiple bonds, benzene substitution, aromatic stability and the difference between addition reactions of alkenes and substitution reactions of benzene.
