Study Notes
Electrophilic Substitution Reactions
- Electrophilic substitution reactions are a type of chemical reaction where an electrophile replaces a functional group in a molecule.
- Halogen displacement: A halogen is added to a molecule and another functional group is removed.
- Addition and elimination occur in halogen displacement
- Example mechanisms are shown for the reactions.
- Aromatic compounds and other organic compounds are involved.
- The reaction products are shown in the diagram.
