Which is more reactive, C(6)H(6) or C(6)...

Which is more reactive, `C_(6)H_(6) or C_(6)D_(6)` towards electrophilic substitution?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The mechanism involves two steps in which scission of C-H or C-D is a fast step.
Hence both substances `C_(6)H_(6)-C_(6)D_(6)` react at the same rate.
