The given reaction can occur in the presence of: (a) Bromine water (b) Br? in CS?, 273 K (c) Br? / FeBr? (d) Br? in CHCl?, 273 K Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
(a) Phenol with Br? / H? O gives 2,4,6-tribromophenol. (High ionisation due to polar solvent and high activation of ring) (b) Phenol with Br? in CS? /CHCl? /FeBr? gives a mixture of o- and p-bromophenol, with p-bromophenol as the major product. (less ionisation due to non- polar solvent) [Chemical reactions showing bromination of phenol under different conditions]
