What is Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution Reactions about?

1) Electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions include nitration, sulfonation, halogenation, Friedel-Crafts alkylation, and Friedel-Crafts acylation of benzene. 2) These reactions involve attack of an electrophile on the pi electrons of the aromatic ring, followed by loss of a proton to restore aromaticity. 3) Common electrophiles include nitronium ion (NO2+), sulfur trioxide (SO3), halogen-containing Lewis acid complexes, and carbocations such as tert-butyl (C(CH3)3+).
