Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Resonance structure should be identified from the reaction intermediate.
Concept introduction:
Electrophile (negative-charge loving): A molecule or ion that accepts a pair of electrons to make a new covalent bond is called an electrophile.
Electrophiles are neutral or positively charged species, having vacant orbitals and attracted electron towards itself.
Electrophilic substitution reactions: an electrophile replaces a functional group in a compound, which is typically, but not always, a hydrogen atom.
Electrophilic
Carbocation: carbon atom bears positive charged species with three bonds is called Carbocation and it plays vital intermediate in
