Expert Answer
The Friedel-Crafts alkylation can be reversed, especially when a 3° alkyl group such as Me3C is present.
Dealkylation is affected with AlCl3 by transfer of Me3C+ to another arene, used as the solvent, or at high temperatures by protonation with H+ and loss of Me3C+as Me2C=CH2.
Me3C- , introduced into a ring, is used to block an active position and/or to direct another group into the ring , and then removed.
