Assertion (A) : In monohaloarenes, further electrophilic substitution occurs at ortho- and para- position.
Reason (R) : Halogen atom is a ring deactivator.

A

(A) and (R) both are correct statement and (R) is correct explanation for (A)

B

(A) and (R) both are correct statement but (R) is not correct explanation for (A)

C

(A) is correct statement but (R) is wrong statement.

D

(A) is wrong statement but (R) is correct statement.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Hint: Correct reason: Due to +R effect of halogen, negative charge appear at ortho and para position of the ring.
