Phenol with \( C C l_{4} \) and \( K O H \) gives salicylic acid. The reaction is known as:

1. Friedel-Craft reaction
2. Reimer - Tiemann reaction
3. Rosenmund's reaction
4. siemlet reaction

Correct answer: Reimer - Tiemann reaction

Solution

Phenol treated with CCl4 and KOH undergoes ortho-carboxylation/formylation-type transformation characteristic of the Reimer–Tiemann reaction. The product salicylic acid is associated with this classic phenol ortho-substitution reaction.
