Hello, I have problem with write down the mechanism of reaction. I need mechanism of receiving 4-bromoanisol from anisol.

Have someone any idea how to write it?

You must show you have attempted the question, this is a Forum Rule.

Identify the type of the reaction- Is it nucleophilic or electrophilic substitution ?

[nightmare00000]

I think that is electrophilic substitution, am I right?

[Babcock_Hall]

Yes.

Yup, just typical EAS. The one difference is that your mechanism may not include a catalyst. Why might this be?

compare reactivity of anisole with benzene for EAS reactions
