Q
Q: Which of the following is a common electrophile in electrophilic aromatic substitution?
Solution:
Bromine (Br2) can act as an electrophile in the presence of a catalyst like FeBr3 during electrophilic aromatic substitution.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what an electrophile is. An electrophile is a species that seeks electrons and can accept an electron pair.
Step 2: Know that electrophilic aromatic substitution is a reaction where an electrophile replaces a hydrogen atom on an aromatic ring.
Step 3: Identify common electrophiles used in this type of reaction. One common electrophile is bromine (Br2).
Step 4: Recognize that bromine needs a catalyst, like FeBr3, to become a strong enough electrophile to react with the aromatic compound.
Step 5: Conclude that bromine (Br2) in the presence of FeBr3 is a common electrophile in electrophilic aromatic substitution.
