Chemical concepts reorganization

Reorganization of Chemical Concepts and Reinforcement of Conceptual Discovery... 

In revising this edition, we have remained focused on our goal of teaching chemical concepts in the context of real world applications. With this goal and reviewer feedback in mind, we have reorganized and added content, including unique features.

In another study, Fourcroy is cast as the historian of the chemical revolution, a role he fulfils admirably as he was both spectator and participant in the most important chemical events of the period.230 The importance of the language of chemistry has been stressed by Trevor Levere231 and by Pierre Laszlo.232 It has also been contended that the new chemistry contained the seeds of later structural concepts.233 This may be pushing the potential of Lavoisier s anti-phlogistic chemistry and its revised nomenclature too far, yet without all these main components, the fundamental reorganization of chemistry could not have been achieved. Fresh interest was also stimulated in Lavoisier s collaborators and contemporaries. For example, the... 

This dynamic process is commonly known as constitutional dynamic chemistry (CDC). While the concept of dynamic covalent chemistry defines systems in which the molecular (or supramolecular) reorganization proceeds via reversible covalent bond formation/breakage, dynamic systems based on noncovalent linkage exchanges define the concept of dynamic noncovalent chemistry. Dynamic combinatorial chemistry (DCC) can be defined as a direct application of CDC where libraries of complementary functional groups and/or complementary interactional groups interexchange via chemical (i.e., covalent) reactions or physical (i.e., noncovalent) interactions. 

As a result, the sensitivity coefficients (or response properties), defined in both theoretical frameworks, are compatible and constitute a unified approach to the concept of chemical reactivity. Perturbations of molecular orbitals are translated into charge density reorganizations, which are equally fundamental and perhaps easier to imagine. 

Sir Robert Robinson played an early central role in the development of the electronic theoiy of organic chemistry (5S). For example, he was the first to use the now commonplace curly arrow to imply the reorganization of electron density during the course of a chemical reaction (59). The constract of stereoelectronic control (which, in its most literal sense, explains all chemical reactions) underpins many concepts now in the lexicon of mechanistic and synthetic organic chemistry. These include the Hammond postulate, the Curtin-Hammett Principle, the Markovnikov rule (for additions to alkenes), the Thorpe-lngold effect (on rates of cyclization), the Btirgi-Dunitz approach trajectory, Cram/Comforth/Felkin-Ahn controlled additions (to chiral ketones...
