Five isomeric p-subsituted aromatic compounds (A) to (E ) with molecular formula `C_(8)H_(8)O_(2)` are given for identifyication. Based on the following observation, give the structures of the compounds.
i. Both (A) and (B) form a silver mirror with Tollens reagent, (B) also gives a positive test with neutral `FeCl_(3)` solution.
ii. (C ) gives positive iodoform test.
iii. (D) is readily extracted in aqueous `NaHCO_(3)` solution.
iv. (E ) on acid hydrolysis gives 1,4-dihydroxy benzene.
Compound (A) is:

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Silver mirror with Tollens. reagent indicates the presence of - CHO group and positive test with `FeCl_3` indicates the presence of -OH group in the ring.
Combining both,
