MCQ
Presence of a nitro group in a benzene ring
- ✓deactivates the ring towards electrophilic substitution
- Bactivates the ring towards electrophilic substitution
- Crenders the ring basic
- Ddeactivates the ring towards nucleophilic substitution.
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
deactivates the ring towards electrophilic substitution
a
Nitro group is electron withdrawing group. It withdraws electron from benzene rings towards itself such that the pi electrons of benzene are transferred to the nitro group this deactivate the benzene ring towards electrophilic substitution reaction.
