{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-000786",
  "term": "Aromatic substitution photochemical electrophile-olefin combination",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A photochemical reaction involving the substitution of a group on an aromatic ring by an electrophilic olefin, initiated by light absorption. This process typically proceeds through a photoinduced electron transfer or excitation of the aromatic substrate. The reaction results in the formation of a new carbon-carbon bond on the aromatic system.",
