Question

Draw the major organic product(s) for the reaction. The starting material is a benzene ring with one substituent. The substituent is a nitrogen bonded to a hydrogen and a carbonyl that is bonded to a methyl group. THis reacts with tert butyl bromide and A l b r 3 to give the product.

Answer 1

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

In electrophilic aromatic substitution, the benzene ring undergoes substitution when it is reacted with suitable electrophiles.

The products of electrophilic aromatic substitution depends on the substituents already present on the benzene ring. Some substituents activate the ring towards electrophilic substitution and direct the incoming electrophile to the ortho and para positions on the ring while some substituents deactivate the benzene ring towards electrophilic substitution and direct the incoming electrophlle to the meta position on the ring.

The amide substituent is moderately activating and is an ortho, para director hence the products shown in the mage attached to this answer.
