Identify the electrophile in the following.
- A \(\mathrm{R}-\mathrm{NH}_{2}\)
- B \(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\)
- C \(\mathrm{AlCl}_{3}\)
- D \(\mathrm{CN}_{6}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{AlCl}_{3}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{AlCl}_{3}\) is an example of Lewis acid. It is an electron acceptor. Hence, it is an example of electrophile.
