Reaction of haloarenes – Electrophilic Substitution Reaction
Electrophile refers to an electron seeking specie. Thus, electrophilic substitution reaction refers to the reaction in which an electrophile substitutes another electrophile in an organic compound. Haloarenes undergo the usual electrophilic reactions of the benzene ring such as halogenation, nitration, sulphonation and Friedel-Crafts reactions. We will discuss about them one-by-one, but let’s first understand the behaviour of Reaction Of Haloarenes towards the attack of an electrophile:
Due to –I effect (electron withdrawing nature) of halogen, benzene ring gets somewhat deactivated towards electrophilic substitution reaction.
Due to its various resonating structures, there’s an excess of electron or negative charge over ortho- and para- positions of the ring than the meta- position. Thus, haloarenes are o- and p- directive towards electrophilic substitution reaction.
Due to the above reasons, haloarenes are somewhat deactivated than normal benzene ring towards the electrophilic substitution reaction. Thus, these reactions occur slowly and require more drastic conditions as compared to those in benzene.
In the above Reaction Of Haloarenes when a haloarene comes in the vicinity of chlorine in the presence of ferric chloride as solvent, then the chlorine molecule develops a polarity within itself and the chlorine with a slightly positive charge acts as electophile (electron seeking) and attacks the electron rich ortho and para position of haloarene. Both ortho and para compounds are formed out of which para isomer is the major product and ortho isomer is the minor product.
Explanation:
Phosgene is a major industrial chemical used to make plastics and pesticides. At room temperature (70°F), phosgene is a poisonous gas. With cooling and pressure, phosgene gas can be converted into a liquid so that it can be shipped and stored.
