Do you know? am i correct? **Question 1** (2 points)Which of the following carbonic acid derivatives do you expect will be the most electrophilic?- **A:** The compound has a carbonyl group with a chlorine (Cl) and a methoxy (OMe) group attached.- **B:** The compound has a carbonyl group with two methoxy (OMe) groups attached.- **C:** The compound has a carbonyl group with two chlorine (Cl) groups attached.**Options:**- ○ A- ○ B- ● C**Explanation:**The most electrophilic compound is typically the one that can most easily attract electrons. In this case, compound C, which has two chlorine atoms, is likely the most electrophilic due to the strong electron-withdrawing effect of chlorine. Thus, option C is the correct answer.

Electrophilic nature depends on the groups attached to a carbon. An electron donating group will make the carbon less positively charged and hence a negatively charged group cannot attack the carbon easily. And if an electron withdrawing group is attached then, the carbon becomes more and more electron deficient and a negatively charged group can attack easily.-OMe is an electron donating group having +R effect and -Cl is an electron withdrawing group having -I effect. So, molecule C, is having 2 Cl, making C highly electron deficient and hence more electrophilic.
