It’s because the molecule lacks a plane of symmetry.

Hello, I don't understand how the quiz question on ''How many isomers are formed'' lead to the c(ch3)3 substituted benzene having four isomers?

Please also include about addition reactions on multiple aromatic systems like anthracene, biphenyl etc. It will be very much helpful

I have a question. I’m currently working on the project. It consists of getting dicoumarol from coumarine from cinnamon. One step is adding OH group on fourth carbon atom so I can get 4-hydroxycoumarin. I have no idea and I would be so grateful if someone answered me their advices. Please, it’s really urgent. Thank you in advance

In reply to Alex. Sure - it can happen (especially with electron rich substrates), but generally speaking, you want to use a catalyst.
