“PREPARATION OF m-DINITRO BENZENE FROM BENZENE”
The (-1) effect causes all the position in the ring to be more effective
& -1 effect reduces the reactivity of all the position in the ring
relative to become –m effect compounds which have +1 & +m gives
substitution & -1, -m gives meta substitution.
After completion of addition, heat the flask on water bath for about
an hour. Stop the heating & keep the flask for 5 min. Pour the
liquid on 500 ml beaker containing 200 ml water. Stir the mix.
yellow ppts of m-dinitro benzene separate out, filter & wash with
water. Recrystallise with water take melting point.
