Today's #Chemistry #ChemEd #ChemSky summary is SN1/SN2 substitution. I waited until 46th summary to cover this as I don't think it's as important as the chemistry of the carbonyl group (but is invariably introduced 1st in textbooks 🤷‍♂️go figure).

I agree. I know of a textbook which covers carbonyl addition in Ch 6 but you have to wait for Ch 15 for SN1/2 …

Probably the same textbook that I actually bought twice (with my own money, and considering the number of 'freebies' I got from reps over the years that is saying something!)

Yes, those freebies weren’t up to much in my experience
