Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Draw the structure of benzene and label its bond lengths. Compare this with an alkene's dual bond lengths and explain the implications on reactivity.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use your knowledge of resonance to explain these concepts.

Question 2

Predict the product formed when benzene undergoes nitration and explain the mechanism. How does this differ from alkene reactions?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how electrophiles interact with double bonds versus with the delocalized system.
