How to determine NO2 substitutes which H Like ik the mechanism for nitration with just benzene but I'm not understanding how to do here (the product has O inside the ring sry for not writing it properly)
Say_miracle_shadow
cause NO2+ is electrophile and benzene is nucleophile

Then if electron density increases on para then shouldn't no2 substi on the meta or para position??

O ka lone pair ke para position pe attack hua basic ESR See if EWG hai then meta substituent is preferred and If its EDG then Ortho para is preferred with para being the major in normal cases (no hydrogen bonding wgera) Is sawaal mein Jahan NO2 aaya hai that is para to the EDG and meta to the EWG so thats the best position for electrophile to attack
