Benzene and other aromatic hydrocarbons, though contain pi -bonds, yet they behave as saturated hydrocarbons. They are stable because of delocalisation of cloud. These undergo electrophilic substitution reactions as : C_(6)H_(5)-H + YZ to C_(6)H_(5)Y +HZ The reactivity of aromatic hydrocarbons towards electrophilic substitution depends upon the electron density in the benzene ring Which reagent cannot be used in Friedel Craft alkylation of benzene?
