Substituents affects two aspects of Electrophilic aromatic substitution:

1) The rate of the reaction: can react faster of slower than benzene. 2)The orientation: New group located either ortho, para, or meta to the existing substituent. The identity of the first substituent determines the position of the second substituent.

3 facts about Friedel Crafts Alkylation

1) Vinyl halides and aryl halides do not react in Friedel-Crafts alkylation. (the carbocations that could be for from these species are too unstable. 2) Rearrangements can occur in order to form a more stable carbocation electrophile. 3) Other functional groups that form carbocations can also be used as starting materials. Ex. Alkenes, alcohols are common and used in the presence of a strong acid.

Electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions
