Although -Cl is a deactivator, it’s
lone pairs of electrons stabilize
electrophilic aromatic substitution
reactions and it is an o- pdirector.

Groups that are electron
withdrawing either inductively
or by resonance will stabilize
the conjugate base making the
acid stronger.

Although the -NH2 group is
a stronger activator, it
complexes with AlCl3 to
form a strongly deactivating
ammonium group.
Consequently, the methoxy
is a better activator.
