Draw the major organic product(s) for the following reaction. Multiple products may be drawn in one box, in any order. Use an expanded octet around sulfur to avoid formal charges.
This problem is based on the concept of sulfonation reaction of an aromatic compound.
Aromatic compound are the compounds which mostly contain benzene ring in their chemical composition. Compound which contain benzene ring and a carbonyl group attached to it, are called aromatic carbonyl compounds.
Sulfonation reaction involves the introduction of sulfonic group in order to give a sulfonic acid in the presence of fuming sulfonic acid.
The structure of the reactant in given below:
The chemical reaction involved is given below:
Ans:The structure of the product is given below:
