bromine will be attached to the middle ring

i think it should attach to the middle ring.......

and there is no p position in it!!

so it will attach to ortho...and all m/o are similar...

i mean that o wrt 1 ring is m wrt the other...

so u can attach it anywhere!

Arre,the middle benzene ring is activated most for E.A.S. as there are 2 ph groups attached to it .

bromine will attach to the middle phenyl

REASON : the cental phenyl being the most vulnerable due to negative inductive effect ( electron withdrawing effect) exerted by the peripherals...........

and bromine being an electrophile will attack the weakest phenyl........

hey...

the side rings exert a kind of electron withdrawing effect on the middle ring and thus create +ve charge density at ALL positions....

but in the side rings the +ve charge resides only at the ortho and para positions.....

so it should attach to meta position of SIDE RING!!!!(and NOT the middle ring)

am i wrong somewhere??

in my opinion d reaction is not possible

as all have pointed out that if at all d reaction exist d attack should b in the middle ring

BUT now ph group is o,p directing and o position wid respect to one ph is m position wid respect 2 other

ANother reason is also the sterical hinderence in the middle ring


plz correct me if i am wrong
