Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The ranking of the compounds in increasing order of their harshness of the reaction conditions that are required to accomplish the sulfonation reaction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The organic reaction of an arene in which the replacement of a hydrogen atom by a sulfonic acid takes place is known as aromatic sulfonation. This reaction is an aromatic substitution reaction. The substitution in sulfonation reaction is reversible.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The ranking of the compounds in increasing order of their harshness of the reaction conditions that are required to accomplish the Friedel-Crafts acylation is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The reaction between isobutyryl chloride with benzene in presence of AlCl3 is a Friedal Craft acylation reaction. In this, AlCl3 acts as a Lewis acid catalyst. It is a method of insertion of carbonyl group on benzene ring.
