Chapter 16, Problem 16.26P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The comparison between nitration of thioanisole and anisole is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Electrophilic substitution reactions are reactions in which electrophile, that are electron loving species get substutituted on a benzene ring. The benzene ring should have an electron donating group that makes the ring nucleophilic, that is electron rich for the electrophile to attack.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Explain why acetanilide is less reactive toward electrophilic substitution than aniline.?
Why is it important to proceed with the acetanilide formation before the nitration? The nitration is meta directed in aniline The nitration is deactivated in aniline. The nitration is directed towards the para position in acetanilide than in aniline The nitration is faster in acetanilide than in aniline
In the electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction of acetanilide with bromine, is an intermediate resonance stabilized carbocation formed? Why or why not? Bromine is dissolved in glacial acetic acid.   Thank you!
