Question:medium

\[ \mathrm{C_6H_5NH_2} \xrightarrow[\;273{-}278\,K\;]{\mathrm{HNO_2/HCl}} X \xrightarrow{\mathrm{Cu_2Cl_2}} Y \] Conversion of \(X\) to \(Y\) is called

Show Hint

\[ \boxed{ \mathrm{ArN_2^+X^-} \xrightarrow{\mathrm{CuCl,\ CuBr,\ CuCN}} \mathrm{ArCl,\ ArBr,\ ArCN} } \] This substitution of the diazonium group using cuprous salts is called the Sandmeyer reaction.
