Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:
Question Explanation:
The question asks to determine the major product of the reaction between the molecule containing two different ether groups and HI.
Concept:
This question is based on cleavage of ether by HI, Nucleophilic substitution (SN1 & SN2).
Solution:
The given compound is a mixed aryl-alkyl ether and an alkyl-alkyl ether, both attached to the benzene ring. The CN group is an electron-withdrawing group (EWG) but its presence does not change the core mechanism of ether cleavage.
