o-Toluic acid on reaction with Br(2)+Fe ...

o-Toluic acid on reaction with `Br_(2)+Fe` gives

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`CH_(3)` is o, p-directing and COOH is m-directing. Both these effects reinforce each other and hence substitution occurs at position p-to `CH_(3)` and m-to COOH group, ie, option (C ) is correct.
