PPT-The Structure of Benzene

Research Task Benzene research task Find out about and describe including diagrams Kekules structure for benzene C 6 H 6 Explain the discrepancies and limitations in the model with respect to the low reactivity . 15-8. Benzene undergoes substitution reactions with electrophiles.. Electrophiles attack benzene by substituting for a hydrogen atom, not addition to the ring.. Under the conditions of this type of reaction, ordinary non-aromatic conjugated polyenes would polymerize rapidly.. Environmental Health, Safety and Risk Management. University of Alaska Fairbanks. August 2011. 1. Overview. Properties and Sources of Benzene. Exposure Limits. Routes of Exposure and Health Effects. Protecting Yourself. By Taylor Hatchett. What is Benzene?. Chemical. C. olorless or light yellow. L. iquid at room temperature. Has a sweet odor . H. ighly flammable. E. vaporates quickly into air. What is Benzene?. Vapor is heavier than air. 15-11. Carbon-carbon bonds to benzene can be created using a sufficiently electrophilic carbon based electrophile.. To create the necessary electrophilic carbon atom, a Lewis acid such as AlCl. 3. is employed.. Newehy. Chemistry Department, College of Science, King Saud University. http://fac.ksu.edu.sa/melnewehy.
