A
Key Concept
Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution (EAS)
Explanation
The reaction of a benzene ring with Cl2 in the presence of H2O typically leads to chlorination and hydroxylation through electrophilic aromatic substitution, where Cl is added ortho or para to the activating CH=CH2 group, and OH is added due to the presence of water. The major product usually has these groups in the para position relative to each other due to steric hindrance and electronic effects.
