| Organic Chemistry- reaction of benzene?
I am not good at nomenclature, but I have benzene and a compound that looks like THF with 4 methyl groups- 2 on either side of the O- this reacts with H2SO4 and gives me benzene directly attached at 2 points to a cyclohexane with the 4 methyls and H2O as a by-product. I see that the "THF" opens and attaches to the benzene but I don't understand how. I need to know the mechanism.
