3-Tert-butylpyrrole preferentially undergoes electrophilic aromatic substitution at the 5-position. Using resonance structures, explain why attack at this position is favored over attack at positions 2 and 4.
Nitration - Ferrocene cannot be nitrated using the conventional HNO3-H2SO4 mixed acid conditions, even though nitration is an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction. Explain
Nitromethyl - Would you expect (nitromethyl)benzene to be more or less reactive then methylbenzene toward aromatic electrophilic substitution?
Reactions - Draw the product of the reaction of benzene with:
reaction between benzene and 2-methylpropene (isobutene)
Draw the major product of the following reaction:
Reaction of cumene and acetyl ch ...
Electrophilic Arpmatic Substitution - For each compound, please place a star in the one or two ring positions where electrophilic aromatic substitution is likely to occur.
