Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Friedel-Crafts acylation reactions that could be used to prepare 4-methoxybenzophenone are to be predicted. Whether te reaction would be faster or occur under milder conditions among the corresponding reactions is to be identified. The explanation for the corresponding answer is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Friedel Craft acylation is an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction. In this reaction, the synthesis of the monoacylated product takes place from the reaction between aromatic rings and acyl chlorides. A Lewis acid such as aluminum chloride is used in this reaction as a catalyst.
