Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reasonable mechanism for the formation of each isomer is to be suggested excluding stereochemistry with the assumption that H3O+ is a proton donor.

Concept introduction:

In Friedel-Crafts acylation, acyl halides are used to yield aryl ketones.

In the intra-molecular Friedel -Craft acylation, the nucleophile, and electrophile are on the same molecule resulting in the formation of a ring.

The electrophile in Friedel-Crafts acylation is the acyl cation or acylium cation. The acyl cation is generated by treating an acyl chloride with aluminum chloride. Acyl cations do not undergo any re-arrangement.
