Consider the following reaction: The m-isomer of D and E is called:
Consider the following reaction: The m-isomer of D and E is called:
- A. Phthalic acid
- B. Isophthalic acid
- C. Terephthalic acid
- D. None
Step-by-step solution
In benzene dicarboxylic acids, the meta isomer is isophthalic acid. Phthalic acid is ortho, terephthalic acid is para, so the m-isomer corresponds to isophthalic acid.
