Abstract
This short review provides an overview on the interaction between 1,3,5-triaminobenzene derivatives and different kinds of electrophiles. Due to the ambident reactivity of these nucleophiles (i.e., at the nitrogen atom of the substituents and at the aromatic carbon atom) different compounds can be obtained. Particular attention is devoted to the detection, isolation, and characterization of covalent intermediates of aromatic substitution, starting from Wheland intermediates until the first detection and characterization of Wheland–Meisenheimer intermediates.
