Question

a See page 1127 13 Question (3 points) When naphthalene undergoes an irreversible electrophilic aromatic substitution, the major product is the kinetic product, which proceeds through the most stable arenium ion intermediate. With this in mind, draw the curved arrow mechanism for the first step of the electrophilic aromatic substitution of naphthalene with the acylium ion generated from acetyl chloride and AlClg, Then draw the curved arrows and a resonance structure in step 2 with an unbroken benzenoid ring.Draw all atoms, electrons, and charges,if necessary, on all structures, draw curved arrows on all structures except the last one. Do not draw any inorganic byproducts or counterions. 2nd attempt d See Periodic Table See Hint Heat Draw the resonance structure of the previous compound with an unbroken benzenoid ring.

Answer 1

double bond of Naphthalene is e^CircleMinus rich so, it will react with e^CircleMinus difficient carbon atom Not with oxygen atom. this is reaction is named as freidal craft acylation for further query you can look into it.
