Interpretation:
The structure of the isomers that would expect to obtain in the mononitration of
Concept introduction:
The electrophilic
Nitration of benzene is an example of electrophilic aromatic substitution.
The activating groups are the groups that have the ability to donate the electron density to the benzene ring. The deactivating groups are the groups that have the ability to withdraw the electron density to the benzene ring.
The ortho and para directing groups are the activating groups while meta direction groups are deactivating groups.
