Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Thecurved arrows and the reaction mechanism are to be classified when carbon dioxide reacts with sodium hydroxide.
Concept Introduction:
When an electron-rich nucleophile reacts with an electron-deficient electrophilic compound, a nucleophilic addition reaction takes place.
An electrophilic addition reaction is a reaction in which a substrate is initially attacked by an electrophile, and the overall result is the addition of one or more relatively simple molecules across a multiple bond.
When, in any reaction, a stronger electrophile (more tendency to gain electron) substitutes or replaces a comparatively weaker electrophile, then the reaction is termed as eletrophilic substitution reaction.
Movement of electrons in the molecule is depicted by curved arrows.

- Enter the condensed structural formula for triethylamine. (Use parentheses to indicate substituents on an atom. For example, the condensed structural formula of trimethylamine can be written as CH3N(CH3)CH3, (CH3)3N, or N(CH3)3, which all accurately indicate that three methyl groups are bonded to nitrogen.)
