why pyrrole very resistant to nucleophilic addition and substitution

Question

Accepted Answer

∻Solution∻ ‖ 1 ⋮ **Aromatic Stability**: Pyrrole is an aromatic compound, which means it has a cyclic, planar structure with a delocalized $\pi$-electron system that follows Hückel's rule of 4n+2 $\pi$-electrons. ‖ ‖ 2 ⋮ **Electron Density**: The lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom in pyrrole is part of the aromatic $\pi$-electron system, which increases the electron density of the ring and makes it less susceptible to attack by nucleophiles. ‖ ‖ 3 ⋮ **Reactivity**: Due to its aromaticity, pyrrole prefers to undergo electrophilic substitution reactions rather than nucleophilic addition or substitution, which would disrupt its aromatic system. ‖ ∻Answer∻ ⚹ Pyrrole is resistant to nucleophilic addition and substitution because its aromaticity increases electron density and stabilizes the ring, making it less reactive towards nucleophiles. ⚹ ∻Key Concept∻ ⚹ Aromaticity and electron delocalization in pyrrole ⚹ ∻Explanation∻ ⚹ Pyrrole's aromatic nature and the involvement of the nitrogen's lone pair in the delocalized $\pi$-electron system make it less reactive to nucleophilic attacks. ⚹◊What is the electronic structure of pyrrole that makes it resistant to nucleophilic addition and substitution?⍭ Generate me a similar question◊
