Many electrophilic aromatic halogenations require the presence of aluminum trihalide (halide-chloride or bromide) as a catalyst. Why is it unnecessary to include an aluminum trihalide in the electrophillic aromatic bromination reaction of acetanilide with molecular bromide?

The aluminium trihalide assists in the heterolytic bond fission of the bromine molecule.

Explanation:

The electrophilic aromatic bromination of acetalinide with molecular bromine requires the formation of Br+. This specie is formed when an Aluminum trihalide reacts with bromine. The Br-Br bond breaks heterolytically such that charged species are produced. This Br+ participates in the electrophilic aromatic substitution and AlX4- is formed where X4 shows a tetrahalide complex of aluminium

8

explanation:

each principal energy level above the first contains one s orbital and three p orbitals. a set of three p orbitals, called the p sublevel, can hold a maximum of six electrons. therefore, the second level can contain a maximum of eight electrons - that is, two in the s orbital and 6 in the three p orbitals.
