Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following compounds is an aryl halide? (2019)
  • Step 1: Understand what an aryl halide is. An aryl halide is a compound that has a halogen atom (like bromine, chlorine, etc.) attached to an aromatic ring (a special type of ring structure in organic chemistry).
  • Step 2: Identify the compound in question. In this case, we are looking at bromobenzene.
  • Step 3: Check if bromobenzene has a halogen atom. Bromobenzene contains a bromine atom, which is a halogen.
  • Step 4: Check if bromobenzene has an aromatic ring. Bromobenzene has a benzene ring, which is an aromatic ring.
  • Step 5: Conclude that since bromobenzene has both a halogen atom and an aromatic ring, it is classified as an aryl halide.
