KnowraFriedel–Crafts acylationLinked fromLinked fromThe 11 pages that link to Friedel–Crafts acylation, each with the reason it gives.All 11Broader topic 4Related 5Compared with 2Electrophilic aromatic substitutionBroader topic: Its acylium electrophile produces aromatic ketones through this substitution mechanism.Friedel–Crafts reactionCompared with: Its electrophile does not rearrange, and the product carbonyl deactivates the ring against further acylation.SulfonationCompared with: It shares the aromatic substitution framework but installs a carbonyl-containing group instead.Acyl chlorideBroader topic: Acyl chlorides supply acyl electrophiles in the classic Lewis-acid-promoted reaction.Aluminium chlorideBroader topic: Anhydrous AlCl₃ helps generate the electrophile used to attach the acyl group.ThiopheneRelated: Thiophene can be acylated at a ring carbon under suitably mild conditions.AcetophenoneRelated: Acylation of benzene with an acetyl source is a common route to acetophenone.Acetyl chlorideRelated: Acetyl chloride supplies the acetyl electrophile, commonly with a Lewis acid catalyst.AnisoleRelated: Anisole undergoes acylation readily, usually producing mainly para-substituted product.Electrophilic substitutionBroader topic: It installs an acyl group through an electrophilic aromatic substitution pathway.BenzofuranRelated: It provides a route to carbonyl-substituted benzofurans, though substrate behavior can vary.
