Most reactive ones have NO2 groups ortho or para to the leaving group. So, 41. The presence of strong electron-withdrawing groups such as NO2 ortho or para to a potential leaving group favors nucleophilic aromatic substitution by the addition–elimination mechanism. Without such groups in these positions, the benzyne mechanism is favored. (a) (b) (c) 42. (a) 1. CH3COCl (forms amide, reduces ring activation so that bromination in the next step can be controlled to attach just one Br to the ring instead of three), 2. Br2, CHCl3, 3.

Strongly basic butyllithium removes HF in the first step, generating benzyne. A second mole of butyllithium adds to benzyne as a nucleophile. The reason for the direction of addition is explained in the answer to Exercise 22-12.
