The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

The reaction sequence involves the following steps:

  1. The initial compound undergoes hydration with H2O, H+, forming a primary alcohol.
  2. Oxidation with CrO3 converts the alcohol to a ketone.
  3. Finally, treatment with NH2NH2, KOH and heating (Wolff-Kishner reduction) reduces the ketone to an alkane.

Thus, the final product A is a simple alkyl chain attached to the benzene ring: Answer: (1).
So, the correct answer is : Option (1).
