Correct answer: (c) Butanoyl chloride + AlCl3 then Zn, HCl
Explanation:
The Friedal-crafts acylation reaction will give propyl phenyl ketone which further on Clemmenson’s reduction will give butyl benzene
C6H6 + CH3CH2CH2COCl\(\overset{AlCl_3}\longrightarrow\) C6H5COCH2CH2CH3 \(\overset{Zn-Hg/HCl}\longrightarrow\) C6H5CH2CH2CH2CH3
