2,4-D
The mostly widely used herbicide in the world
2,4,5-T
Another herbicide
Agent Orange (defoliant used in Vietnam War): equal parts 2,4-D
and 2,4,5-T. Much of health effects were due to dioxin in

ü Assign the 1H NMR spectrum to hydrogen atoms in the structure.
SYNTHESIS USING E.A.S. REACTIONS
LIMITATIONS OF PREVIOUS RXNS
1. Friedel Craft Reactions don’t work on strongly deactivated rings (halobenzenes OK).
2. Friedel Craft Reactions don’t work with anilines.
3. Anilines react with Lewis acids (e.g. FeBr3) and thus react unexpectedly.
