Question
Chapter 13, Problem 59P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reasonable mechanism for the formation of each isomer is to be suggested excluding stereochemistry with the assumption that
Concept introduction:
In Friedel-Crafts acylation, acyl halides are used to yield aryl
In the intra-molecular Friedel -Craft acylation, the nucleophile, and electrophile are on the same molecule resulting in the formation of a ring.
The electrophile in Friedel-Crafts acylation is the acyl cation or acylium cation. The acyl cation is generated by treating an acyl chloride with aluminum chloride. Acyl cations do not undergo any re-arrangement.

- Amines are converted into alkenes by a two-step process called Hofmann elimination. SN2 reaction of the amine with an excess of CH3I in the first step yields an intermediate that undergoes E2 reaction when treated with silver oxide as base.
