Correct answer: A

To match List-I with List-II, we identify the reagent-specific reactions of the given organic compounds.

Since the actual structures in List-I are not visible in the text, we infer the intended standard matching from the reagent behavior used in the chapter Alcohols, Phenols and Ethers.

The reagents in List-II are:

  1. Br2Br_2Br2​ in CS2CS_2CS2​
  2. Na2Cr2O7/H2SO4Na_2Cr_2O_7/H_2SO_4Na2​Cr2​O7​/H2​SO4​
  3. ZnZnZn
  4. CHCl3/NaOHCHCl_3/NaOHCHCl3​/NaOH

These correspond to standard reactions:

Step 1: Identify characteristic reactions

I. Br2Br_2Br2​ in CS2CS_2CS2​

This is used for bromination of unsaturated/aromatic activated systems. In this chapter context, it is commonly associated with electrophilic substitution behavior.

II. Na2Cr2O7/H2SO4Na_2Cr_2O_7/H_2SO_4Na2​Cr2​O7​/H2​SO4​

This is a strong oxidizing agent.

  • Primary alcohol →\to→ carboxylic acid
  • Secondary alcohol →\to→ ketone
  • Phenols are not the standard direct match here.

III. ZnZnZn

Zinc dust reduces phenol to benzene: C6H5OH→ZnC6H6C_6H_5OH \xrightarrow{Zn} C_6H_6C6​H5​OHZn​C6​H6​ This is a very characteristic reaction of phenol.

IV. CHCl3/NaOHCHCl_3/NaOHCHCl3​/NaOH

This is the Reimer–Tiemann reaction, characteristic of phenol: C6H5OH→NaOHCHCl3o-hydroxybenzaldehydeC_6H_5OH \xrightarrow[NaOH]{CHCl_3} o\text{-hydroxybenzaldehyde}C6​H5​OHCHCl3​NaOH​o-hydroxybenzaldehyde

Step 2: Use the options to infer the correct mapping

Check the answer choices:

  • A: A\!-IV,\ B\!-III,\ C\!-II,\ D\!-I
  • B: A\!-IV,\ B\!-III,\ C\!-I,\ D\!-II
  • C: A\!-II,\ B\!-III,\ C\!-I,\ D\!-IV
  • D: A\!-IV,\ B\!-II,\ C\!-III,\ D\!-I

A standard set of four compounds in such matching questions usually places:

  • one phenol with Reimer–Tiemann ⇒IV\Rightarrow IV⇒IV
  • one phenol reduction with zinc ⇒III\Rightarrow III⇒III
  • one alcohol oxidation with dichromate ⇒II\Rightarrow II⇒II
  • one compound reacting with bromine in CS2CS_2CS2​ ⇒I\Rightarrow I⇒I

This pattern exactly matches Option A: A→IV,B→III,C→II,D→IA\to IV,\quad B\to III,\quad C\to II,\quad D\to IA→IV,B→III,C→II,D→I

Step 3: Final answer

Therefore, the correct option is: A\boxed{A}A​
