Why does phenol not have Friedel-Crafts?

Answers

Answered by sunithasekharan

Answer:

Like aniline, phenol too reacts to a very less extent during Friedel-Crafts reaction. The reason being that the oxygen atom of phenol has lone pair of electrons which coordinate with Lewis acid. In fact most substituents with lone pair would give poor yield.
