Give the products, if any, of each of the following reactions: a. benzonitrile + methyl chloride + AlCl3 b. benzoic acid + CH3CH2Cl + AlCl3 c. phenol + Br2 d. benzene + 2 CH3Cl + AlCl3
Added by Sarah S.
Step 1
Benzonitrile reacts with methyl chloride in the presence of AlCl3 through a Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction. The product is N-methylbenzamide. $$\text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{CN} + \text{CH}_3\text{Cl} + \text{AlCl}_3 \rightarrow Show more…
