Question

How does the product of Aniline bromination differ in  $$CS_2$$   (non-polar) versus Aqueous (polar) medium?

Canvas Classes · Accepted Answer

In aqueous medium, it gives 2,4,6-Tribromoaniline (white ppt). In non-polar  $$CS_2$$  , the low polarity suppresses the activation, yielding mono-substituted 4-Bromoaniline (major) and 2-Bromoaniline
