Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of the product formed by the reaction of 2 methylpropene with benzene and the mechanism of the reaction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Electrophilic substitution reactions are those reactions in which an electrophile replaces the atom or function group of a compound. The organic reaction in which substitution of an aromatic compound, in the presence of strong Lewis acid, takes place with the alkyl group is known as Friedel-Crafts alkylation.
