Q22 / 155 · WBJEE 2017 · Chemistry

The structure of the product $P$ of the following reaction is Figure

  • A
    Figure
  • B
    Figure
  • Correct answer
    C
    Figure
  • D
    Figure

Solution

Figure ($\because$ Acetic anhydride is limiting reagent) Thus, we get one mole of acetanilide and molar mass of (ii)Figure $\because O^{-}$ is more reactive than $-$ OMe and p-position is occupied by - OMe, the substitution occurs at ortho-position w.r.t - O group.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
