ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT WHENEVER WE treat any ring activating derivative of benzene with Halogen
Two cases arise:
(i)Solvent used is Non protic acid like CS2-> Then mono-substitution of halogen takes place.
(ii)Solvent used is Protic acid like H2O , ethanoic acid ,etc-> Then tri-substitution of halogen takes place.
