JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 8.4. Organic chemistry reaction mechanism
On the treatment of the following compound with a strong acid, the most susceptible site for bond cleavage is

- A \(O2- C3\)
- B \(O5 - C6\)
- C \(C4- O5\)
- D \(C1 - O2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(O5 - C6\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The lone pair of electrons on \(O2\) is involved in resonance with \(C= C\). Hence \(O2\) will not be protonated. The lone pair of electrons on \(O5\) is not involved in resonance with \(C\, = C\). Hence, \(O5\) will be protonated. Chloride ion will then attack least substituted…
