Carboxylic Acid Derivatives. Phosphate Nomenclature. Nucleophilic Substitution Rxn’s. Sterics. Electronics (polarization). Sulfer is more polarizable than oxygen, thus a better leaving group Why acetic anhydride then? Resonance (stabilization of L.G.). Isotope Labeling.

Isotope Labeling • How do we really know how these mechanisms work?
DCC most commonly used for the synthesis of peptides (proteins)
LAH reduction forms an alcohol Aluminum plays an important role in the mechanism
Grignard attack of Acid Chlorides Will get two additions, can’t control single vs. double addition
