a)
Interpretation: The resonance contributors for benzaldehyde has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
The reactivity of benzene ring towards electrophilic
b)
Interpretation:
The resonance contributors for chlorobenzene has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
The reactivity of benzene ring towards electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions is enhanced by the activating substituents. The deactivating substituents make the benzene ring less reactive. Some of the activating substituents are:
