a) Complete the generic mechanism for an electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS) reaction using El as the electrophile and show how the sigma complex is resonance stabilized. Use curved arrows to show the mechanism and the conversion between resonance structures. Make sure to add any missing charges. Note the use of a generic base in the last step. b) Label the reaction coordinate diagram for a typical EAS reaction shown below by correctly placing the letter for each structure on the diagram.
