HOW TO DRAW REACTION MECHANISM IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY


Organic reactions follow a logical pathway involving the atoms and groups of atoms interacting with each other. The route followed by the reactants to produce products is known as the reaction mechanism. Organic chemists are usually asked to draw a suitable (plausible) mechanism for different chemical reactions. There are a few things that need to be kept in mind while drawing reaction mechanisms correctly, keeping in view the basic concepts of chemistry in general and organic chemistry in particular.
