What will be the direction of reaction during halogenation, nitration and Friedel craft's reaction?
Benzene ring to electrophile
Electrophile to benzene ring
Benzene ring to the nucleophile
Nucleophile to benzene ring
In the given reaction the reagents used are electrophiles (), on these electrophiles, benzene donates the electron pair and then the reaction proceeds to give the various product.
For example : Halogenation of benzene (benzene donates the electron pair)-
Therefore, option (1) is correct.
