Which is most reactive towards an electrophilic reagent-

Answer»




SOLUTION :PRESENCE of electron - donating group in the aromtic ringfacilitates electrophilic substitution. +R effect of -OH `("which is believed to exist partly as" - overset(-)(O)"group in aqueous solution")gt - OCH_(3)`. Hence , - OH group INCREASES the electron density of aromatic ring to a greater extent than `-OCH_(3)` group. Due to this reason compound ( c ) is most reactive towards electrophilic reagent.
