Why ortho-nitrophenol is more acidic than ortho-methoxy phenol ?

By ankushmaster on December 24, 2020March 19, 2021

To answer this we have to see the reactive nature of phenol and the substituents attached to it. Acidic behavior of phenol depends on the fact that how easily it can loose a proton and make phenoxide ion which is stabilized by resonance. The methoxy group being electron donating group increases the electron density of
