1 Reactions Bond formation Synthetic organic chemistry is about creating complex molecules from simple starting materials -a process which may involve many different reactions. Designing a synthesis is a bit like chess. a synthetic 'game strategy

1 Reactions Bond formation Basically,most reactions involve electron- rich molecules forming bonds to electron deficient molecules (i.e.nucleophiles forming bonds to electrophiles). The bond will be formed specifically between the nucleophilic center of the nucleophile and the electrophilic center of the electrophile

Reactions------Classification Reactions can be classified as acid/base reactions(covered in next section) functional group transformations; one functional group can be converted into another. ▣Normally these reactions are relatively straightforward and proceed in high yield

Br-Br+FeBr3 Br+-FeBr4 Slow 1An electron pair from the benzene ring attacks the positively polarized bromine,forming a new C-Br bond Br FeBr4 and leaving a nonaromatic carbocation intermediate. 2A base removes H+from the carbocation intermediate, and the neutral substitution product forms as two electrons from the C-H bond move to re-form the aromatic ring.
