STEP WISE Mechanism Of Electrophilic And Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution Reactions, Arenium Ion Intermediates

Created using ChatSlide

This overview covers key concepts in aromatic substitution reactions. It begins with Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution (EAS), detailing the generation of the electrophile and the formation of the c3 complex. The discussion then shifts to the Arenium ion, a positively charged intermediate, highlighting charge delocalization. Finally, it contrasts Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution with EAS, outlining the nucleophile's attack on aryl carbon and the formation of the Meisenheimer complex.
