25
Q

Limitations of Friedel–Crafts

Reaction fails if benzene has a substituent that is less deactivating than halogens

A

False.

Reaction fails if benzene has a substituent that is MORE deactivating than halogens.

26
Q

Limitations of Friedel–Crafts

Rearrangement causes Mixture of products

A

True. Formation of carbocation due to lone pairs. Results to low yield of monosubti benzene

27
Q

Effect of substituents on EAS reactions

A

Reactivity (act or deact) and direction of Orientation (o, m, p) of the electrophilic attack.

28
Q

Orientations

A

Ortho - 1,2
Meta - 1, 3
Para - 1, 4

29
Q

What is activating group?

A

Donating E, has high reactivity. Has Ortho and Para direction

30
Q

Alkyl groups stabilize sigma complex by resonance.

A

False. by INDUCTION.

Donates electron density through sigma bond.

31
Q

Lone pair of e- stabilize sigma complex by resonsance.

A

True.

32
Q

What is deactivating group?

A

Has low reactivity. Directs to meta position. It deactivates all positions on the ring but less in the meta position.

33
Q

For multiple substituents. Reaction is where?

A

In the position of the strongest activating substituent. Product could be mixtures.
