The compound B is (a) (b) (c) (d)

In this reaction, the first part is nitration of benzene ring which forms nitrobenzene which is further reacted with 2 Br in presence of 3 FeBr to give meta product. The following reaction is shown below: Hence, the correct option is (a). 147. The major product obtained in the reaction is expected to be : (a) (b) (c) (d) Nitration is an electrophilic substitution reaction in which the nitro group is added to the benzene ring. The Carbonyl group CO attached to a benzene ring deactivates the benzene ring, so nitration takes place on the other ring. The following reaction is shown below: He
