Interpretation: The reactivity of the given following compound should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Electrophile: It is positively charged species which seeks for negative charge and hence accepts pair of electrons from negatively charged species (Nucleophiles) which results in the formation of
Electrophilic
Benzene becomes fewer reactive in EAS when deactivating groups are present on it.
Deactivating groups are often fine electron-withdrawing groups
Electrophilic substitution
