Question

explain meta directing property of CCl3 due to +R effect or reverse conjugation?

Answer 1

Answer:

The activating group directs the reaction to the ortho or para position, which means the electrophile substitute the hydrogen that is on carbon 2 or carbon 4.

The deactivating group directs the reaction to the meta position, which means the electrophile substitute the hydrogen that is on carbon 3 with the exception of the halogens that is a deactivating group but directs the ortho or para substitution.

CCl

is a strong deactivating group so it is a meta director.

Cl is ortho- para- directing groups but unlike most ortho- para- directors, Cl tend to deactivate benzene.(unusual property).
