The 14 pages that link to Friedel–Crafts reaction, each with the reason it gives.

• Lewis acidRelated: Aluminum chloride commonly acts as a Lewis acid to generate the reactive electrophile.

• ElectrophileBroader topic: Lewis acids generate or strengthen the electrophile that attacks the ring.

• Friedel–Crafts acylationNarrower topic: Acylation is one of the two classic named transformations in this family.

• Iron(III) chlorideRelated: Iron(III) chloride can activate halides as a Lewis acid in some Friedel–Crafts reactions.

• Aluminium chlorideRelated: AlCl₃ commonly activates alkyl or acyl halides in these carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions.

• Phthalic anhydrideRelated: Early phthalic anhydride synthesis used Friedel–Crafts chemistry to build an aromatic precursor.

• Boron trifluorideRelated: BF₃ can activate reagents as a Lewis acid in Friedel–Crafts chemistry.

• Organosilicon chemistryRelated: Early organosilicon synthesis adapted classical electrophilic methods to make arylsilicon compounds.

• Titanium tetrachlorideRelated: TiCl₄ can act as a Lewis-acid promoter in selected Friedel–Crafts reactions.

• Triflic acidRelated: Triflic acid can promote these reactions by generating or activating electrophiles.

• Antimony trichlorideRelated: SbCl₃ can act as a Lewis acid in some Friedel–Crafts reactions.

• Tin(IV) chlorideRelated: Tin(IV) chloride can promote these reactions by activating electrophilic reagents.

• AzuleneRelated: Friedel–Crafts chemistry has been used in routes to substituted azulenes and azulene frameworks.

• Lewis acids and basesBroader topic: Aluminum chloride acts as a Lewis acid catalyst that activates the alkylating or acylating reagent.
