About the Book
This book titled Substitution Reaction Mechanism deals with the said subject in its totality. In chemistry, a reaction mechanism is the step by step sequence of elementary reactions by which overall chemical change occurs. Although only the net chemical change is directly observable for most chemical reactions, experiments can often be designed that suggest the possible sequence of steps in a reaction mechanism. Recently, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry has been used to corroborate the mechanism of several organic reaction proposals. In a substitution reaction, a functional group in a particular chemical compound is replaced by another group. In organic chemistry, the electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution reactions are of prime importance. The sole purpose of this book is to teach students how to come up with reasonable mechanisms for reactions that they have never seen before. As most chemists know, it is usually possible to draw more than one reasonable mechanism for any given reaction.
