Concept introduction:
Electrophile is a species with a positive charge. It attracts toward negative of partial negative charge. Example of an electrophile, cation such as
and polar molecule such as
-atom in
molecule.
Nucleophile is a species with a negative charge. It attracts toward positive of partial positive charge. Example of a nucleophile, anion such as
and polar molecule such as
-atom in
molecule.
Nucleophilic addition is the addition reaction brought about by nucleophiles. It is called a nucleophilic addition reaction. These reactions are typical of aldehyde and ketones.
Addition reactions brought about by electrophiles are called electrophilic substitution. These are typical of alkenes and alkynes.
