15An substitution reaction Lone pair attacks
non-proton atom
VERY IMPORTANT Curly-arrows always starts at
bonding or non-bonding pair of electrons
16An Elimination reaction H and Cl- have been
eliminated from EtCl
VERY IMPORTANT Curly-arrows always starts at
bonding or non-bonding pair of electrons
17An acid-base reaction Lone pair attacks a proton
VERY IMPORTANT Curly-arrows always starts at
lone pair of electrons
18An addition reaction Lone pair attacks a
non-proton atom
Lewis acid
Octet of electrons around sp3 B centre
Sextet of electrons around sp2 B centre
VERY IMPORTANT Curly-arrows always starts at
lone pair of electrons
