Friedel-Craft's reaction using MeCl and anhydrous AlCl_3 will take place most efficiently with

Answer»

Benzene
Nitrobenzene
Acetophenone
Toluene

Solution :In Friedel-Craft's reaction, an electrophile ATTACKS on benzene ring. Thus, higher the electron density on benzene ring , more readily the reaction will takes place. Thus PRESENCE of electron donating group will increase the reactivity and presence of electron ATTRACTING group will decrease the reactivity TOWARDS Friedel-Craft's reaction. Thus the most reactive is toluence.
