Question

Groups that have an unshared electron pair on the atom attached to the aromatic ring that make the ring more reactive than benzene are groups and are directors. deactivating, ortho-para activating, meta deactivating, meta activating, ortho-para The nitro (NO_2) group is a very strong group and it is a powerful director. deactivating, ortho-para activating, meta deactivating, meta activating, ortho-para The resonance effect of a substituent arises from the electrostatic interaction of the polarized bond to the substituent with the developing positive charge in the ring as it is attacked by an electrophile. True False All electron-donating groups are activating groups and all are ortho-para directors with the exception of substituents, all electron-withdrawing groups are deactivating groups and all are meta directors. hydroxyl amino halogens alkoxyl Hydrogen abstraction from the methyl group of methylbenzene (toluene) produces a radical called the radical. allylic free halogen benzyllic
