15. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.15 Properties of Aromatic Compounds Aromatic compounds  have a stable aromatic bonding system  are resistant to many reactions  undergo substitution reactions, which retain the stability of the aromatic bonding system

16. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.16 Substitution Reactions In a substitution reaction, a hydrogen atom on a benzene ring is replaced by an atom or group of atoms. Type of substitutionH on benzene replaced by Halogenation Chlorine or bromine atom NitrationNitro group (—NO 2 ) Sulfonation —SO 3 H group

17. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.17 Halogenation In the halogenation of benzene  an H atom of benzene is replaced by a chlorine or bromine atom  a catalyst such as FeCl 3 is needed in chlorination  a catalyst such as FeBr 3 is needed in bromination

18. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.18 Nitration In the nitration of benzene,  an H atom of benzene is replaced by a nitro (–NO 2 ) group from HNO 3  an acid catalyst such as H 2 SO 4 is needed

19. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.19 Sulfonation In the sulfonation of benzene,  an H atom on benzene is replaced by a —SO 3 H group from SO 3  an acid catalyst such as H 2 SO 4 is needed
