Q. Q. What is this compound? Additional info: During the solubility test, the unknown was soluble in ether only. It was NOT soluble in water, H2SO4, HCl, NaOH and NaHCO3. During the nitrogen test, it produced a light pink solution indicating a negative test. During the beilstein flame test, a green flame was absent indicating a negative test and the absence of a halogen. Its boiling point during distillation at the first 10 drops was 181.1-195.3oC degrees celsius, the rest of the distillate had a range of 196.5-210.1 oC degrees celsius. It had a refractive index of 1.6004 @ 20 degrees celsius.

It's a great question. So as we can see by solubility that the compound is not so polar and only soluble in ether solvent. But you should again check the solubility because what I can guess from other pieces of information that the compound may be soluble in water. And My guess is Benzaldehyde(PhCHO), and following are the reason:
So, every details supports for the Benzaldehyde compound.
