Substitution Reaction

A chemical reaction where one functional group in a chemical compound is replaced by another.

Mechanism

A mechanism is a description of the step-by-step process by which reactants are transformed into products in a chemical reaction, including the intermediate stages and transition states.

  • Develop reactions employing distinct methodologies (e.g., SS1U1B1NS1U1B02) and forecast the architecture of significant organic products.
