Question
Complete the generic mechanism for an electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS) reaction using E as the electrophile, and
show how the sigma complex is resonance stabilized. Use curved arrows to show the mechanism and the conversion between
resonance structures. Make sure to add any missing charges. Note the use of a generic base (B) in the last step. Then, label the
reaction coordinate diagram for a typical EAS reaction by correctly placing the structures on the diagram.
