Question

Which one of these molecules can be a reactant in a friedel-crafts reaction? a) aniline b) benzenesulfonic acid c) chloroethene d) bromobenzene e) p-bromonitrobenzen

Answer 1

The molecules can be a reactant in a Friedel-crafts reaction will be aniline .

The Lewis acid as well as the chlorine atom of such acid chloride form a complex during the Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction. Cleaving the complex's C-Cl link produces an acylium ion. The acylium ion undergoes resonance stabilized but also has a positive electrical charge upon that carbon atom.

The Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction, an electrophilic aromatic substitution process, may add an alkyl to a benzene molecule. One illustration is the insertion of a methyl group into a benzene ring.

Therefore, the molecules can be a reactant in a Friedel-crafts reaction will be aniline .

Hence, the correct answer will be option (a)
