Question
Chapter 3, Problem 27P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Using curved arrows and showing all nonbonding electron pairs, each of the given reaction is to be rewritten.
Concept Introduction:
Lewis acids are electron pair acceptors.
Lewis bases are electron pair donors.
Any electron deficient species can act as a Lewis acid, such as compounds containing group IIIA elements like boron or aluminium.
Compounds having vacant orbitals also act as Lewis acids like halides of iron, zinc and aluminium
