The reaction of bromine in CS

2

with phenol is given:

As a result of +R effect of the (OH) group, the electron density in the benzene ring increases, thereby facilitating the attack by an elect. In other words, the presence of (OH) group activates the benzene ring towards electrophilic substitution reactions. Further, since the electron density is relatively higher at the two o- and one p-position and therefore, electrophilic substitution occurs mainly at o- and p-position.

Anthracene is a solid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon of formula C₁₄H₁₀, consisting of three fused benzene rings. It is a component of coal tar. Anthracene is used in the production of the red dye alizarin and other dyes. Anthracene is colorless but exhibits a blue fluorescence under ultraviolet radiation
