Activating groups "speed up" electrophilic substitution of aromatics and deactivating groups "slow down" electrophilic substitution.
1. Ignoring halogens, what is different between the composition of the ortho-para directors and the meta directors?
2. What causes the deactivating groups to "slow down" the substitution? What may be used to speed up these reactions?
3. How does carbocation stabilization affect the orientation of the products in each orientation?

Label the following as activating (A) or deactivating (D), and then also as ortho/para directors (OP) or meta directors (M). Write the answer below each group. N "Here with other ty A/D? = = = = OP/M? = f) Using resonance structures, explain why a nitro group is "meta-directing" (i.e. does the nitro group actually affect the meta positions?) g) As mentioned in class, the halogens are a bit anomalous as substituents on the aromatic ring: they are deactivating groups,...
