The explanation for the Friedel - Crafts acylation reaction of anisole is given below:
Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole is taken place in the laboratory along with the acetyl chloride and aluminum chloride as the catalyst for the reaction to produce the acetanisole.
During the reaction, more complexity occurs due to the interaction of methoxy oxygen.
To avoid this, AlCl3 is added in more amount during the reaction time.
