Acids / Electrophiles | Bases / Nucleophiles | Oxidizers | Reducers |
To use these reactant categories more effectively you might want to review acids and bases , oxidation and reduction in general, or learn or review how to calculate oxidation states and balance equations for organic compounds.
Every student should make a personal summary in a style that suits her or his own learning style - whatever works for you, do it. Several methods have been found successful for learning reactions:

Suggestions for improvement should be sent by e-mail to lsweeting@towson.edu. Justin D. Chandler is the co-creator of these pages, and we had help from Adeola Adeyeye, Arh Lam, Nathanael McCurley, Bryan Bornfriend, Keith Leadbetter and Shannon Devine. If you wish to participate (there is still lots to be done, such as scaling the pictures of the reagents and adding other texts) contact Dr. Sweeting.
