What products will be produced when Trifluorotoluene reacts with HNO3 and H2SO4?
Accepted Answer
The reaction of trifluorotoluene with HNO3 and H2SO4 will produce a mixture of products, including 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyltoluene and 4-nitro-2-trifluoromethyltoluene. The major product will be 2-nitro-4-trifluoromethyltoluene because the ortho position is more reactive than the para position due to steric effects.
