The correct answer is: $\frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{3} i$
Let $z=x+i y$
Then, vertices of rectangle are $(x, y),(x,-y)$, $(-x,-y),(-x, y)$.
Now, area of rectangle $=(2 x)(2 y)=4 x y$


It is given that,
$\begin{aligned}
& 4 x y=2 \sqrt{3} \Rightarrow 2 x y=\sqrt{3} \\
& \therefore \quad x=\frac{1}{2}, y=\sqrt{3} \quad \therefore \quad z=\frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{3} i
\end{aligned}$
