Interpretation:
Products formed for the given reaction has to be predicted. Given reaction is shown below,
Concept Introduction:
Friedel-Crafts Acylation: This Lewis acid-catalyzed electrophilic
Deactivators are electron withdrawing groups attached to the benzenes that have either positive charge or an atom with high electronegativity. They are meta directors.
Activators are electron donating groups attached to the benzenes that have either electron density that is able to push into benzene ring or a lone pair of electrons. They are ortho-para directing.
Halogens are deactivators that are ortho-para directing.
