Correct Answer: elimination

Solution : The correct option is elimination .

Benzene is incapable of undergoing an elimination reaction. Benzene's carbon atoms are sp ² hybridised, which means they form a planar ring with alternating single, and double bonds. Because the double bonds are delocalized around the ring, benzene is extremely tough to break. Breaking a carbon-carbon bond is required for elimination processes, which is difficult in benzene. Furthermore, the delocalization of electrons in the double bonds makes any nucleophile attack on the benzene ring difficult. As a result, benzene resists elimination processes fairly well.
