Question

Identify the major product (G) in the following reaction (Bromination with \( Br_2/FeBr_3 \)). 

• A. Option a
• B. Option b
• C. Option c
• D. Option d

Hint:

Anilide rule: Bromination occurs on ring bonded to nitrogen.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept: Electrophilic aromatic substitution

Given structure contains:
Benzamide group \( -CO-NH-Ph \)

Amide group:
Strongly deactivating on carbonyl ring (meta-directing)
But anilide ring (attached to N) is activated

Step 1: Which ring reacts?
The ring attached to nitrogen behaves like an aniline derivative → activated.

Step 2: Orientation
Amide \( -NHCO- \) is ortho/para directing.

Step 3: Sterics
Para substitution dominates.

Conclusion:
Bromination at para position of N-phenyl ring → option (C).
