`3-Phenol` propanic acid `(B)` can be prepared by both nitrile and carbonation method as shown.

Path `I` gives a good yield of `(B)`.
`overset (Ө) C N` initiates elimination reaction.

A

If both `(A)` are `( R)` are true and `( R)` is the correct explanation of `(A)`.

B

If both `(A)` and `( R)` are true but `( R)` is not the correct explanation of `(A)`.

C

If `(A)` is true but `( R)` is false.

D

If `(A)` is false but `( R)` is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Since `3-phenol` propanoic acid is `1^@ RX`, preparation by both methods can occur.

Both carbonyl compounds and acid derivatives though they contain grouping yet the reactions given by them are entirely different. As Aldehydes and Ketones give addition product with a nucleophile, while carboxylic acid derivatives give nucleophilic acyl substitution through addition/elimination mechanism. Where X- = -Cl - O-overset(O)overset(||)C-R-OR, -NR(R) etc. Why aldeydes and Ketones give nucleophilic addition reaction while acid derivatives prefer nucleophilic acyl substititution reaction?
