When anisole (methoxybenzene) is chlorinated the products are 65% 4-chloro anisole and 34.9% 2- chloroanisole. The predominance of the para-isomer over the ortho- isomer is most likely due to the fact that (Choose the best answer) A. the methoxy group directs the chloro group mostly to the para position B. the methoxy group prefers the para isomer C. the 1,2 isomer is less preferred due to steric hinderance D. the methoxy group pushes electrons (by resonance) more to the para position
