Solution

The correct option is C $B r_{2} / water; Z n C l_{2} / H C l; F e C l_{3}$
Novestrol:
Novestrol has phenolic, alcoholic and terminal alkyne groups.
It can react with $B r_{2} / water$ due to presence of unsaturation, with $Z n C l_{2} / H C l$ due to $- O H$ group and with $F e C l_{3}$ due to phenol.
