Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structures of the compounds from A to H in the given series of reactions are to be shown.

Concept introduction:

Friedel-Crafts acylation permits the synthesis of monoacylated product by the reaction of arenes with acyl chlorides in the presence of aluminium chloride. This alkylation reaction comes under the category of electrophilic aromatic substitution.

The reaction of any compound with concentrated sulphuric acid and nitric acid is known as nitration.

The reaction that includes the addition of one or more bromine atoms in an aromatic or an aliphatic compound in the presence of light energy is known as bromination reaction.
