When bromine reacts with methylbenzene in the presence of light (instead of a catalyst), the substitution reaction happens in the methyl group rather than the ring.

One of the hydrogen of the methyl group is replaced by a bromine atom. (chloromethyl)benzene is produced.

The reaction doesn't stop there, we can replace all the H atoms of the methyl group, but the problem asks for monosubstituted products.

So, in presence of light we can form only one product.

Answer: A. 1
