Select the structure of the intermediate carbocation in the reaction. E is an abbreviation for electrophile. C 6 H 6 + E + ⟶ Intermediate ⟶ C 6 H 5 X + H + The structure of the intermediate is:

Respuesta :

Answer:

The intermediate structure is the arenium ion

Explanation:

The reaction between the benzene and the electrophile generates the arenium ion.

The positive charge is distributed among the three carbons of the arenium ion by resonance.

And finally, the arenium ion loses its proton to restore the aromaticity of the system.
