How to Use Curved Arrows in Illustrating Reactions
Curved Arrows show the direction of electron flow in a reaction mechanism. point from the source of an electron pair to the atom receiving the pair. (Curved arrows can also show the movement of single electrons. We shall discuss reactions of this type in a later chapter.) always show the flow of electrons from a […]
Aldol Reaction – Mechanism and Stereochemistry
Reaction of aldehydes or ketones to give β-hydroxy carbonyl compounds. The addition of the α-carbon of an enolizable aldehyde or ketone 1 to the carbonyl group of a second aldehyde or ketone 2 is called the aldol reaction.1,2 It is a versatile method for the formation of carbon–carbon bonds, and is frequently used in organic […]
