Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The most likely candidate for substituent X based on the partial rate factors for chlorination si to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Chlorination of benzene and benzene derivatives is a type of electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction.

Partial rate factor is the experimentally determined relative data for rates of electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions.

Substituents which pull the electron density away from carbon atom are the electron withdrawing substituents.

Substituents which donate the electron density to the carbon atom are the electron releasing substituents.

Electron withdrawing substituents deactivate the ring and direct the upcoming electrophile to meta positions.

Electron releasing substituents activate the ring and direct the upcoming electrophile to ortho-para positions.

Which halogenoalkane can undergo faster hydrolysis in the presence of NaOH , an iodoalkane or a chloroalkane and why?
A benzene ring alters the reactivity of a neighboring group in the so-called “benzylic” position, similarly to how a double bond alters the reactivity of groups in the “allylic” position. Benzylic cations, anions, and radicals are all more stable than simple alkyl intermediates. a) Use resonance structures to show the delocalization of the positive charge, negative charge, and unpaired electron of the benzyl cation, anion, and radical.
Markonikov's rule states that with the addition of a protic acid HX to an asymmetric alkene, the H or electropositive part gets attached to the carbon with more alkyl substituents, and the X group or electronegative part gets attached to the carbon with more hydrogens. O True O False
