At the beginning of the I had no idea if I should have been drawing arrows or creating a new product. His mechanistic nomenclature (SN2, E1, etc.) and notational tool, the curly arrows or arrow pushing, argon now familiar to the modern day chemist ( Ingold mechanisms in MACiE). Bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reactions, or SN2, are useful reactions for the deductive reasoning of organic compounds. These simplified structures do not accurately represent the electronic nature or reactivity of organic molecules! Sophomore year had just begun; I had received B's in general (inorganic) chemistry, and I dreaded the thought of organic chemistry. Ingold was the eldest to attempt a systematic representation of reactions in the 1930s. Mechanistic arrow pushing, organic chemistry is used to illuminate the central dogma of molecular biology. Robert Burns Woodward, widely considered to be the preeminent organic chemist of the century, was a craftsman practicing high art (Image: Wikipedia Commons). The mathematician Hermann Weyl who . To a novice of organic chemistry, these rules are Similarly, knowing how to push electrons will not make you an expert on organic reaction mechanisms…but knowing these “rules of the game” is an absolute pre-requisite for organic chemical mastery! Chemists need to express similar awe at the correspondence between their arrow pushing, molecular chairs and boats and the manifestation of these manipulations as the real solids, liquids and gases in their beakers. I'm teaching an organic chemistry course with 300 students, and we give partial credit. To a master of organic chemistry, the rules of organic chemistry are just as clear: orbitals must overlap for reactions to occur, carbocations cannot serve as electron sources, etc.
