Question

please tell theorder of acidity for the above compounds with example​

Answer 1

I think it's a resonance structure of ortho ,mata and para position .

m-cresol is the more acidic than p-cresol,, because in ortho and para isomers, hyperconjugative effects of -CH3 group lead to an increase in electron density on the oxygen atom. that's why C>D.

group in o-cresol produces +I-effect which decreases the polarity due to increase in electron density on —OH bond. So, o-cresol is a weaker acid than phenol. Thus, the correct order is o-cresol < phenol

yes it's A>C>D>B.

i hope it helps you bro .

good question also for me ..!!!
