The correct sequential order of the reagents for the given reaction is

4-Nitroaniline converted to 4-iodophenol.

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

Order.

  1. HNO2\mathrm{HNO_2} diazotises NH2\mathrm{NH_2}.
  2. KI puts I in its place (4-iodonitrobenzene).
  3. Fe/H+\mathrm{H^+} reduces NO2\mathrm{NO_2} to NH2\mathrm{NH_2}.
  4. HNO2\mathrm{HNO_2} diazotises again.
  5. Warm water gives the OH: 4-iodophenol.
