Rate determining step in nitration of benzene is

  • formation of NO2+

  • formation of carbocation

  • replacement of H atom

  • none of these.


B.

formation of carbocation

The nitration of benzene takes places in three steps, i.e.
(i) Generation of electrophile (NO2+)
(ii) Attack of an electrophile to benzene ring forming the carbocation
(iii) Loss of proton from carbocation giving nitrobenzene.
The attack of electrophile to benzene ring giving a carbocation is the slowest and rate determining step.

  • C1-C2 bond is an sp2-sp2 -σ-bond


600.

The stability of Me2C=CH2 is more than that of MeCH2CH=CH2 due to:

  • inductive effect of the Me groups

  • resonance effect of the Me groups

  • hyperconjugation effect of the Me groups

  • resonance as well as the inductive effect of the Me groups
