The order of reactivity of phenol (I), nitrobenzene (II) and benzene (III) towards nitration is
- A (III) \(>\) (I) \(>\) (II)
- B (II) \(>\) (III) \(>\) (I)
- C (I) \(>\) (III) \(>\) (II)
- D (I) \(>\) (II) \(>\) (III)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (I) \(>\) (III) \(>\) (II)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Due to strong \(+R\) effect of \(-\mathrm{OH}\) group, the electron density in phenol (I) is much more than in benzene (III) while due to the strong \(-R\) effect of the \(-\mathrm{NO}_2\) group, the electron density in nitrobenzene (II) is much lower than in benzene. Hence, the…
