Question

Which dedicated named reaction strictly safely converts benzene diazonium chloride cleanly into highly stable fluorobenzene using fluoroboric acid ($HBF_4$)?

Answer: B

💡 Solution & Explanation

The Balz-Schiemann reaction involves precipitating benzene diazonium fluoroborate ($Ph-N_2^+BF_4^-$). Gently heating this dried, stable salt chemically safely liberates $N_2$ and $BF_3$, yielding pure fluorobenzene.
