NEETChemistryHaloalkanes and Haloarenes
Which of the following compounds (a) and (b) will not react with a mixture of NaBr and H 2 SO 4 . Explain why?
Options
- ACompound (a) will not react with a mixture of NaBr and H 2 SO 4 , C—O bond is more stable because of OH group.
- BCompound (b) will not react with a mixture of NaBr and H 2 SO 4 , C—O bond is more stable because of resonance
- CBoth compounds will not react with a mixture of NaBr and H 2 SO 4
- DBoth compounds will react with a mixture of NaBr and H 2 SO 4
Correct answer
B. Compound (b) will not react with a mixture of NaBr and H 2 SO 4 , C—O bond is more stable because of resonance
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (B) Compound (b) will not react with a mixture of NaBr and H 2 SO 4 , C—O bond is more stable because of resonance.
