Question
Chapter 16.5, Problem 11P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The stepwise mechanism for the intramolecular Friedel–Crafts acylation of compound A to form B is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: The Friedel-Craft acylation is a type of electrophilic substitution reaction. AlCl3 is used as Lewis acid which ionizes the carbon-halogen bond of the acid chloride and forms a positively charged carbon electrophile which is resonance stabilized. Then the electrophile reacts with benzene.
