Types of Organic Reactions – Functional Groups Interconversion
Most molecules are at peace with themselves. Bottles of water, or acetone (propanone, Me2C=O), or methyl iodide (iodomethane CH3I) can be stored for years without any change in the chemical composition of the molecules inside. Yet when we add chemical reagents, say, HCl to water, sodium cyanide (NaCN) to acetone, or sodium hydroxide to methyl iodide, chemical reactions […]
