Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Whether the benzeneboronic acid would be nitrated more rapidly or more slowly than benzene is to be stated. The structure of the principal mononitration product of benzeneboronic acid is to be predicted. The explanation for the corresponding answer is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

An electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction is a type of reaction in which an electrophile substitutes a hydrogen atom of the aromatic ring. Aromatic ring does not easily undergo nucleophilic substitution reaction; however, it undergoes electrophilic substitution reaction easily.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Whether the N, N, N- trimethylbenzenamonium would be nitrated more rapidly or more slowly than benzene is to be stated. The structure of the principal mononitration product of N, N, N- trimethylbenzenamonium is to be predicted. The explanation for the corresponding answer is to be stated.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Whether the biphenyl would be nitrated more rapidly or more slowly than benzene is to be stated. The structure of the principal mononitration product of biphenyl is to be predicted. The explanation for the corresponding answer is to be stated.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

Whether the 3-methoxybiphenyl would be nitrated more rapidly or more slowly than benzene is to be stated. The structure of the principal mononitration product of 3-methoxybiphenyl is to be predicted. The explanation for the corresponding answer is to be stated.
