Question
Chapter 8, Problem 29CTQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Whether a nucleophile is attracted to positive or negative charge should be determined.
Concept introduction: Organic reactions generally involve reaction between covalent molecules made of carbon and hydrogen or reaction between organic compounds.
Generally species that are involved in a reaction are:
1. Substrate
2. Reagent
3. Solvent
All these species on the basis of charge density on them can be categorized as nucleophiles and electrophiles.

3. Drawing Reaction Mechanism Arrows
For the reactions that have TWO starting materials, indicate and label which species is the nucleophile and which
is the electrophile. (HINT: Look at the reactants and look at the products to see where bonds form and where
bonds break! Using your pK, table and bond polarity predictions will help!)
Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons for Bond Forming and Bond Breaking in each of the
reaction steps
Finally, identify and label what type of elementary step is represented for each mechanism
