Two Important Reaction Patterns: Ortho- , Para- and Meta- Directors It’s one thing to learn about electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions of benzene itself. But once
Read moreIn the previous post we introduced ortho- ,para- and meta- directors in electrophilic aromatic substitution. Previous to that we covered the mechanism of electrophilic aromatic substitution,
Read moreThe previous post in this series tried to show that the key to understanding why a substituent is an ortho-, para- director or meta– director lies in understanding how it
Read moreHaving gone through the mechanism of electrophilic aromatic substitution, explored activating and deactivating substituents, and seen the importance of directing groups, let’s now take the opportunity to
