Using curved arrows, draw a stepwise mechanism for the reaction of benzene with Cl₂ in the presence of AlBr. Begin with the Lewis acid-base reaction to form an electrophile. Then, continue with the reaction between the Lewis acid-base complex and benzene. You may need to re-draw structures to show certain bonds.
