- A \(-\mathrm{NO}_2,-\mathrm{NH}_2,-\mathrm{COOH},-\mathrm{COOR}\)
- B \(-\mathrm{NO}_2,-\mathrm{CHO},-\mathrm{SO}_3 \mathrm{H}-\mathrm{COR}\)
- C \(-\mathrm{CN},-\mathrm{CHO},-\mathrm{NHCOCH}_3,-\mathrm{COOR}\)
- D \(-\mathrm{CN},-\mathrm{NH}_2,-\mathrm{NHR},-\mathrm{OCH}_3\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(-\mathrm{NO}_2,-\mathrm{CHO},-\mathrm{SO}_3 \mathrm{H}-\mathrm{COR}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Meta-directing groups are electron withdrawing groups. \(-\mathrm{NO}_2, \mathrm{CHO},-\mathrm{SO}_3 \mathrm{H},-\mathrm{COR}\)
