Question

Why pyridine has little tendency for electrophilic substitution reaction?explain with structure of reaction​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Because of the electronegative nitrogen in the pyridine ring , the molecule is relatively electron deficient. It, therefore, enters less readily into electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions than benzene derivatives.

Answer 2

Answer:

Because of the electronegative nitrogen in the pyridine ring , the molecule is relatively electron deficient. It, therefore, enters less readily into electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions than benzene derivatives.
