The ester ethyl p-nitrobenzoate is more reactive towards nucleophilic acyl substitution than
ethyl p-methyoxybenzoate. Explain this reactivity difference using both words and
structures.
ANS:
In general, any factor that makes the carbonyl carbon more polarized will increase the reactivity of
the carboxylic acid derivative. In these particular examples, both are aromatic ethyl esters. It is the
substituent on the aromatic ring that is affecting the reactivity difference. The electronwithdrawing nitro group increases the polarization of the carbonyl by withdrawing electrons from
it through the aromatic ring. The electron donating methoxy group decreases the polarization of
the carbonyl by donating electrons to it through the aromatic ring.
