Passage / Comprehension
When a hydrogen atom is bonded to a highly electronegative atom (like F, O or N) comes under the influence of another strongly electronegative atom, then a weak electrostatic force of attraction is developed between them, which is called as hydrogen bond.
Which anion can show intramolecular hydrogen bond.
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
Intramolecular H-bonding requires –OH/–COOH (H donor) and –COO⁻/O (acceptor) in ortho position for proper ring formation.
(A) Para-substituted → too far
(B) Trans form → groups on opposite side
(C) No suitable H-donor group
(D) Ortho –COOH and –COO⁻ → forms strong intramolecular H-bond (6-membered ring)
