Question #44356

An organic compound \textbf{X} (3-fluoro-4-nitroaniline, $1.0 \text{ mol}$) is subjected to the following sequential one-pot reaction:\n\n\textbf{Step 1:} Treated with Phenol ($1.0 \text{ mol}$) and \ce{NaOH} ($3.0 \text{ mol}$) in DMSO at $100^\circ\text{C}$.\n\textbf{Step 2:} The resulting mixture is cooled to $0-5^\circ\text{C}$, followed by the addition of \ce{NaNO2} ($1.0 \text{ mol}$) and \ce{HCl} ($3.0 \text{ mol}$).\n\nAssuming complete conversion in Step 1, what is the major organic product isolated at the end of Step 2?
