Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
Acid functional group `(-COOH)` has the highest priority. Remaining groups are named giving preference to smallest number series as `:`

`1,3,4` is the correct number series not the `1,4,5.` Therefore the correct `IUPAC` name is `4-` amino`-3-`propoxy benzoic acid.
