Explain electrophilic bromination on 3-phenylpropanenitrile

Reference no: EM13716028

Question- Electrophilic bromination on 3-phenylpropanenitrile occurs preferentially at the ortho and para positions. Assuming substitution at the meta position, draw the three resonance structures of the carbocation intermediate.

If possible just a to the point details about how you got the answer?
