Write the structures of the major products expected from the following reactions:
$(a)$ Mononitration of $3-$methylphenol
$(b)$ Dinitration of $3-$methylphenol
$(c)$ Mononitration of phenyl methanoate.
$(a)$ Mononitration of $3-$methylphenol
$(b)$ Dinitration of $3-$methylphenol
$(c)$ Mononitration of phenyl methanoate.
(N/A) Mononitration of $3-$methylphenol gives $2-$nitro-$5-$methylphenol and $4-$nitro-$3-$methylphenol.
$(b)$ Dinitration of $3-$methylphenol gives $2,4-$dinitro-$5-$methylphenol.
$(c)$ Mononitration of phenyl methanoate gives $4-$nitrophenyl methanoate as the major product due to the ortho/para directing nature of the ester group.
$(b)$ Dinitration of $3-$methylphenol gives $2,4-$dinitro-$5-$methylphenol.
$(c)$ Mononitration of phenyl methanoate gives $4-$nitrophenyl methanoate as the major product due to the ortho/para directing nature of the ester group.
