Okay, so let's use WebMO/Gaussian to do some organic chemistry. The figure below discusses the "activating and "deactivating" nature of electrophilic aromatic substitution. As noted:
- Activating groups donate electrons to the ring,
- Deactivating groups withdraw electrons from the ring.
The following WebMO/Gaussian activity will highlight the aspects of "activating" and "deactivating."
