The triiodomethane (iodoform) reaction of phenol involves the conversion of phenol to iodoform in the presence of iodine and sodium hydroxide. The reaction proceeds through oxidation of phenol to benzoic acid, followed by further oxidation and degradation to iodoform. This reaction is commonly used as a test for the presence of a methyl group attached to a phenolic compound.

Chemical reactions that result in transference of electrons
Browning of the apples is caused by the oxidation of the enzyme phenol oxidase:phenol oxidase + oxygen---------------melanins
Oxidation is a chemical reaction; but a physical modification can also occur.
There are many known syntheses of phenol. However, a few simple ones are: 1) hydrolysis of chlorobenzene: - chlorobenzene + water --> phenol + hydrochloric acid 2) oxidation of toluene: - toluene + oxygen --> phenol + carbon dioxide + water 3) oxidation of benzene with nitrous oxide: - benzene + nitrous oxide --> phenol + nitrogen
stabilization of phenol against oxidation
Cytochrome P450 allows phenytoin to undergo aromatic hydroxylation to turn into phenol.

It is a test for presence of phenol. Fe itself is a transition metal that form a complex ions with phenol. Hence, the Fe can undergo d-d transition that give a colour which is purple in this case.
