#1
Front (Question)

What are the types of reactions that benzene can go through?

Back (Answer)

• Friedal crafts acylation • friedal crafts alkylation • sulfonylation • nitration • halogenation

#2
Front (Question)

What is the geneal mechanism for the reactionf with benzene?

Back (Answer)

• e- from db attack E+ • B- deprotenates the benzene • db reformed

#3
Front (Question)

What is the position called when it’s 1,2?

Back (Answer)

Ortho

#4
Front (Question)

What is the position called when it’s 1,3?

Back (Answer)

Meta

#5
Front (Question)

What is the position called when it’s 1,4?

Back (Answer)

Para

#6
Front (Question)

What is SnAr?

Back (Answer)

Nucleophilic aromatic substitution

#7
Front (Question)

What is the simple outline for SnAr?

Back (Answer)

Benzene with R group and X -> Nu Benzene with R group and Nu

#8
Front (Question)

What are the steps in SnAr?

Back (Answer)

• Nu- attacks the d+ C on C-X • e- moves from db to C • forms C- [ • • charge moves to form db • moves around to C • db from X kicks it out ]

#9
Front (Question)

What is sangers reagent?

Back (Answer)

Benzene with NO2 at 1 X at 2 NO2 at 5

#10
Front (Question)

What happens when R ist strongly e- donating?

Back (Answer)

Activating - stabilises ortho and para - direct ortho and para

#11
Front (Question)

What are examples of R that are strongly e- donating?

Back (Answer)

• NH2 • NHR • NR2 • OH • OR (Mesomeric effects)

#12
Front (Question)

What happens when R is weakly e- donating?

Back (Answer)

Activating - stabilises ortho and para - direct ortho and para

#13
Front (Question)

What are examples of R that are weakly e- donating?

Back (Answer)

• Me • Et • Ph (Inductive effects)

#14
Front (Question)

What happens when R is strongly e- withdrawing?

Back (Answer)

Deactivating - destabilises ortho and para - direct mete

#15
Front (Question)

What are examples for R that are strongly e- withdrawing?

Back (Answer)

• ketone • ester • amide • NO2 • CN

#16
Front (Question)

What happens when R is weakly e- withdrawing?

Back (Answer)

Deactivating - destabilises ortho and para - direct ortho and para

#17
Front (Question)

What are examples of R that are weakly e- withdrawing?

Back (Answer)

• F • Cl • Br (Withdrawing, but can donate through mesomeric effects)
