Question

3 attempts left Check my work Does the following compound undergo Friedel-Crafts alkylation with CH3Cl and AICl3? Select the single best answer @Yes @ No Why? The AICI3 coordinates with the-N(CH3)2 group, and the resulting complex is a poor electron-withdrawing group that activates the benzene ring. The AICI3 coordinates with the -N(CH3)2 group, and the resulting complex is a strong electron- withdrawing group that activates the benzene ring. ? @ The AICl3 coordinates with the The AICl3 coordinates with the-N(CH3)2 group, and the resulting complex is a strong electron-withdrawing group that deactivates the benzene ring. N(CH3)2 group, and the resulting complex is a poor electron-withdrawing group that deactivates the benzene ring.

Explanation / Answer

The answer is bottom left option

AlCl3 coordinates with -N(CH3)2 group and resulting complex is strong electron withdrawing group that deactivates benzene ring
