Question 46 of 90 in this shift, Chemistry question 16 of 30, Section A.

Match List I with List II List I List II A. Kolbe's Reaction I. [structure: benzene ring with a CHO substituent] B. Gatterman-Koch Reaction II. [structure: benzene ring with OH and COOH on adjacent ring carbons] C. Reimer-Tiemann Reaction III. [structure: benzene ring with an OCH3_3 substituent] D. Williamson Synthesis IV. [structure: benzene ring with OH and CHO on adjacent ring carbons] Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

The figure, in words

List II consists of four drawn benzene-ring structures: I ring with CHO; II ring with OH and COOH on neighbouring ring carbons (OH upper, COOH to its right); III ring with OCH3; IV ring with OH (upper) and CHO (lower) on neighbouring ring carbons.
