2. Suggest a reason that the following arenes do not undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution when \( \mathrm{AlCl}_{3} \) is used in the reaction: (a) (b) (c)

Step 1
However, if the arene is highly electron deficient (like nitrobenzene), it may not undergo this reaction because it lacks the electron density to attract the electrophile. Show more…

Which of the following are aromatic electrophilic substitution reactions?
Although two products ($\textbf{A}$ and $\textbf{B}$) are possible when naphthalene undergoes electrophilic aromatic substitution, only $\textbf{A}$ is formed. Draw resonance structures for the intermediate carbocation to explain why this is observed.
Identify the statement, which is not applicable in terms of an aromatic electrophilic substitution.
