When a bicyclic (or even polycyclic) compound such as ß-Naphtholis being brominated via EAS, how do I determine the locations onthe molecule that will be substituted with bromine in the finalproduct. This has to do with resonance structures of the moleculeand O/P vs M directing effects of the substituent already on thering before bromination. I'm just having trouble making theconnection. Does it differ in any way compare to a molecule withonly one ring, like phenol? An example and clarification would begreat! Thanks!
