Toluene does not undergo reaction with bromine water due to aromatic stabilization.

<h3>What is addition reaction?</h3>

The term addition reaction refers to a type of reaction in which atoms or groups are added across the double bond. This type of reaction is common to alkenes and alkynes. By this reaction, unsaturated compounds are reduced to their saturated monologues.

We know that due to aromatic stabilization, compounds that contain the aromatic sextet do not undergo addition reaction such as the addition of bromine. Rather, what occurs in such systems is a substitution reaction under appropriate conditions.

It then follows that toluene does not undergo reaction with bromine water due to aromatic stabilization.
