As learned in the synthesis of 1-bromo-3-chloro-5-iodobenzene, electron donating groups enhance the reactivity of benzene tawards electrophiles and electron withdrawing groups decrease the reactivity of benzene towards electrophiles. Based on this, which of the following benzene derivatives is the MOST REACTIVE towards electrophiles? NO2 NH: HN O A. 3 O B. 4 OC.1 O D. 2

In the synthesis of methyl m-nitrobenzoate from methyl benzoate using HNO3 and H2SO4 via EAS the product is washed with ethanol to remove impurities. By impurities do they mean o-nitrobenzoate and methyl p-nitrobenzoate? How come ethanol can remove o-nitrobenzoate and methyl p-nitrobenzoate, but has no effect on m-nitrobenzoate? Thank you.
In the lab for the synthesis of methyl m-nitrobenzoate from methyl benzoate using HNO3 and H2SO4 via EAS, the product is recrystallized to remove impurities using 95% ethanol. Would o-nitrobenzoate and methyl p-nitrobenzoate be considered impurities? If that is so, how come ethanol can remove o-nitrobenzoate and methyl p-nitrobenzoate, but has no effect on m-nitrobenzoate? Thank you.

Tunicates are marine animals that are called "sea squirts" because when they are taken out of water, they tend to contract and expel seawater. Lepadiformine is a cytotoxic agent (toxic to cells) isolated from a marine tunicate. During a recent synthesis of lepadiformine, the investigators observed the formation of an interesting by-product (3) while treating diol 1 with a reagent similar in function to PBr3 (J. Org. Chem. 2012, 77, 3390–3400):
