- Five isomericpara-disubstituted aromatic compounds .4 to E with molecular formula C8H8O2 were given for identification. Based on the following observations, give structures of the compounds: (i) Both A and B form a silver mirror with Tollen's reagent; also, B gives a positive test with FeCl3 solution. (ii) C gives positive iodoform test. (iii) D is readily extracted in aqueous NaHCOj solution. (iv) E on acid hydrolysis gives 1, 4-dihydroxy benzene.
