Answer #1

Answer: (c) option is correct option.

explanation:

since it has O which is electron donar also, it is in conjugation with double bond of benzene ring. Which make it more reactive towards the electrophilic aromatic substitution.

In compounds A and B , group associated with benzene are deactivating group , so they will not give ArSN at good rate ,

While , in D , O is not in conjugation which makes it less reactive than C,

And in E ,there is no hetero atom , this C will be more reactive than E.

Consequently, C will give aromatic electrophilic substitution at fastest rate.
