Cumene is the common name the IUPAC standard name is Isopropylbenzene
very easy, a single step reaction. When phenol is heated with Concentrated Nitric acid 2,4.6-trinitrophenol (Picric acid) is produced.
I'd do it this way. Use Dow's Process (NaOH) to convert chlorobenzene to phenol. Now, use nitrating mixture to get both o and p- nitrophenol. Fractional distillation should give you what you finally need.
The molar mass of H2O = 2 + 16 = 18 g/mol. The ratio of H in H2O is therefore 2/18 = 1/9. Thus, amount of H in 42.8 mg H2O = 42.8 * 1/9 = 4.76 mg. This must then be the amount of H in the 47.6 mg cumene. Subtracting, 47.6 - 4.76 = 42.84 mg, is therefore the amount of C in the cumene. Summarising: 47.6 mg cumene = 42.84 mg C + 4.76 mg H Converting mass of C and H to millimoles, we have : C = 42.84 /12 = 3.57 mmol and H = 4.76/1 = 4.76 mmol. The molar ratio C:H is therefore 3.57:4.76. Dividing each by the smallest (that is, 3.57) gives : C:H = 1:1.33 Now, multiplying each by 3 brings us to the integers : C:H = 3:4 So the empirical formula for cumene is C3H4. This has a molar mass of 3*12 + 4*1 = 40 g/mol. Given that the molar mass is between 115 g/mol and 125 g/mol, if we multiply 40 by 3, this gives 120 g/mol, smack bang in the middle. So, molecular formula of cumene is C9H12.
You must initially convert it into benzene then heat it with Zn dust. And add CH3-Cl+anhydrous AlCl3 followed by hot concentrated KMnO4.
in the presence of con.h2so4 anisole will convert into phenol and hi
Phenol is converted to aspirin by adding carboxylic acid and esterifying the alcohol.

phenols can be prepared by the following methods. 1) hydrolysis of cholorobenzene: in this process, chlorobenzene which can be obtained by the cholorinationof benzene, is heated at 350*C under high pressure with aqueous sodium hydroxide to get sodium phenoxide, which on acidification yields phenol. 2) pyrolosis of sodium benzenesulphonate: this, the first commercial process for industrial synthesizing phenol , was developed in Germany in 1890. sodium benzenesulphonate is melted with sodium hydrooxide at 350*C to produce sodium phenoxide, which on acidification yields phenol. 3) oxidaton of cumene: benzene is alkylated with propene to produce cumene, which is oxidized with air to produce cumene hydroperoxide, which on treatment with 10% sulfuric acid undergoes a hydrolytic rearrangement to yield phenol and acetone.

This molecular formula is C9H12.
Convert the benzene into Phenol which is a good antiseptic material.

The name of this reaction is Friedel-Crafts acylation. It should have a major product adding a ketone at the para position with regard to the isopropyl of the cumene.
The chemical formula of cumene is C9H12.
React aniline with HCl/NaNO2 (diazotisation) followed by reaction with KOH to give phenol. Nitration of phenol with fuming nitric acid gives picric acid (or trinitrophenol).
