The activating power of nHAc is more than that of CH3. in such a case, the third group enters the p-position with respect to the more powerful group if that position is not occupied. in case the p-position is blocked, the new entrant goes to the ortho position. The o- and p-directing groups have been arranged in decreasing order of their directive strength:
O– > NR2 > NHR > NH2 > OH > OR > NHCOR > CH
Primary alkyl > Secondary alkyl > Tertiary alkyl > –C6H

examples: A third group enters the position shown by the arrow.
2. Both the groups already present belong to category of m-directing groups. in such a case,
tri-substitution is very difcult. The position of incoming group is decided by the group which has
less deactivating power. The strength of m-directing groups is in the order.

The third group occupies the meta position with respect to the stronger group. in case both the groups are of the same strength and m-position is unoccupied, tri-substitution is easier. For example:
3. The two groups already present belong to different categories (i.e. one group is activating and another is deactivating). in such case, the o-, p-directing groups take precedence and the third group enters almost entirely at one position and its position is governed by activating group. For example:

This group is i. activating group and ii. ortho–para directing group.

10.10.1 Toluene, Methylbenzene, Phenylmethane (C6H5CH3)
Toluene was obtained by dry distillation of Tolu balsam from where it is derived. it is commercially known as toluol.
Methods of preparation
it can be prepared by the general methods described earlier. However, commercially it is prepared by the following methods:
1. From coal tar: 50% of benzol is obtained by fractional distillation of light oil present in a fraction
of coal tar distillation. light oil contains large percentage of toluene, which can be separated by fractional distillation. The fraction collected between 331 and 383 K is toluene.
2. By catalytic dehydrogenation of n-heptane or methylcyclohexane (both are petr oleum pr oducts)

Physical properties
Toluene is colourless liquid (boiling point 384 K) with benzene-like odour. it is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohol and ether.
Chemical properties
it shows three types of reactions:
1. reaction due to benzene ring: it undergoes electrophilic
substitution reaction
2. reaction due to side chain
3. reduction
1. Electrophilic substitution reaction: Since methyl group is ortho–para directing group, substitution
takes place at ortho or para position. in most of the cases, para is the main product due to steric hindrance.

2. Reactions due to side chain
a. Chlorination: Toluene undergoes chlorination in presence of sunlight. The chlorinated product on
hydrolysis gives benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde and benzoic acid.
b. Bromination: Bromination is carried out either by Br2 or nBS. Since bromine is less reactive, it is
more selective reagent. Bromination takes place at benzylic carbon giving a mono bromo product.
c. Side-chain oxidation: Oxidation with hot
When oxidized with chromyl chloride, CrO gives benzaldehyde. Conversion of toluene into benzaldehyde by chromyl chloride is known as Etard reaction.

& Learning Plus
Chromyl chloride oxidizes terminal methyl group of alkyl benzene into CHO group.
REMEMBER
Side-chain oxidation takes place at the benzylic carbon and as a result of it, alkyl groups larger than methyl group are also degraded to benzoic acid.

10.2.2 Styrene (an Alkenyl Benzene), 2-Phenyl Ethane, Phenylethylene, Vinylbenzene
Methods of preparation
An aromatic hydrocarbon with a side chain containing a double bond can be prepared by the same methods by which alkenes are prepared by 1,2-elimination. The presence of the aromatic ring in the molecule may affect the orientation of elimination and the ease with which it takes place.

2. Decarboxylation of carboxylic acid having unsaturated
side chain: Cinnamic acid, when heated in presence of hydroquinone, gives styrene on decarboxylation:
3. Dehydration of hydroxyalkylbenzene
REMEMBER
Heating in presence of hydroquinone prevents polymerization of unsaturated Cinnamic acid.
4. Dehydrohalogenation of haloalkylbenzene
On an industrial scale, the elimination generally involves dehydrogenation. For example, styrene, one of the most important synthetic aromatic compounds, can be prepared by simply heating ethylbenzene to about 600ºC in the presence of a catalyst. ethylbenzene, in turn, is prepared by a Friedel–Crafts reaction between two simple hydrocarbons: benzene and ethylene.
Chemical properties
1. Hydrogenation: Although both the benzene ring and the C = C double bond can be hydrogenated
Thus, by selecting the proper conditions, it is quite easy to hydrogenate the side chain without touching
catalytically, the conditions required for the double bond are much less extreme.

2. Oxidation: mild oxidation of the double bond yields a 1,2-diol; more vigorous oxidation cleaves
the C = C double bond and generally gives a carboxylic acid in which the COOH group is attached directly to the ring.
3. addition of haloacid: in presence of peroxide or light, halogen acids are added and anti-markownikoff’s
product is obtained when HBr is added to styrene.
