Arrow pushing is a fundamental concept in organic chemistry that is used to describe the movement of electrons in chemical reactions. It is a graphical representation of the flow of electrons during a reaction, which is shown using arrows to indicate the movement of electrons from one atom to another.
In general, arrows pointing from a pair of electrons indicate the movement of that electron pair, while arrows pointing to a single electron indicate the movement of a single electron. This mechanism is commonly used to describe the formation and breaking of chemical bonds, as well as the transfer of charges and the formation of new functional groups in molecules.
Arrow pushing mechanisms are important for understanding the reaction mechanisms of organic molecules, as well as predicting the products of chemical reactions. They are widely used in chemical synthesis, drug discovery, and materials science, among other fields.
