Here you are a typical synthetic route asked in the Organic Chemistry test, from an aromatic substrate to insert an -OH group onto the structure.
- Nitration
- Reduction of the nitro grooup
- formation of the Diazonium Salt (never forget the anion!!!!!)
- finally decomposition of the diazonium salt and insertion of a molecule of water which loses the extra proton. This step free N2 Nitrogen
