In the following reaction the reason why meta-nitro product also formed is

- A low temperature
- B \(- NH _{2}\) group is highly meta-directive
- C Formation of anilinium ion
- D \(- NO _{2}\) substitution always takes place at meta-position
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Formation of anilinium ion
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Aniline on protonation gives anilinium ion which is meta directing. So considerable amount of meta product is formed.
