Exercise 12 Chlorobenzene and bromobenzene both undergo nitration more slowly than benzene. Does this mean that the rate of nitration of these compounds is controlled by the inductive effect or the resonance effect of the halogen atom?

The second, nitration of the chlorobenzene, serves to activate the molecule for nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction needed to add formanilide to the substrate. Hydrogenation of the resulting diphenyl nitrate compound yields the desired 4-aminodiphenylamine.

The nitration of benzene proceeds smoothly to give nitrobenzene near quantitative yield, in the hydrophobic ionic liquid [C 10 mim][OTf]. The nitration of chlorobenzene was much slower than with benzene, but gave 2- and 4-nitrochlorobenzene in excellent yield, in a 3.0:1.0 para:ortho-isomer ratio.

The present invention relates to a continuous adiabatic process for preparing nitrochlorobenzene, in which the waste sulfuric acid produced during the practice of the process is reconcentrated and recycled into the nitration reaction. ... The feedstocks used in the process according to the invention are chlorobenzene,
