Methyl alcohol
Glycol
Nitrophenol
Nitrophenol
The reaction of phenol with chloroform in the presence of dilute sodium hydroxide finally introduces, which one of the following functional group?
-CH2Cl
-COOH
-CHCl2
-CHCl2
Given are cyclohexanol (I), acetic acid (II), 2,4,6-trinitropenol (III) and phenol (IV). In these, the order of decreasing acidic character will be
III > II> IV> I
II > III> I > IV
II > III> IV> I
II > III> IV> I
Among the following four compounds
A) Phenol
B) Methyl Phenol
C) meta - nitrophenol
D) para-nitrophenol
the acidity order is
D > C > A > B
C > D > A> B
A > D > C > B
A > D > C > B
Consider the following reaction,
the product,Z,is
toluene
benzaldehyde
benzoic acid
benzoic acid
Which one of the following is most reactive towards electrophilic attack?
C.
Electron releasing groups stabilise the intermediate cation whereas electron withdrawing groups destabilise it.
The order of electron withdrawing group is:
NO2 > Cl >OH> C6H5
Hence is more reactive towards electrophilic substitution because -OH group least destabilise the carbocation. Further -OH group is strongly activating group while -NO2 and -Cl are deactivating group.
