Introduction
Publisher Summary
This chapter explains that inorganic chemistry has tended to lag behind organic chemistry in the determination of reaction mechanisms. The foundations and concepts of the mechanisms of reactions in solution were laid down between 1920 and 1945 and applied almost solely to the reactions of tetrahedral and planar carbon centers in organic compounds. Organic chemistry in the 1920s period was ripe for the investigation of reaction mechanism. The situation in the inorganic area was less satisfactory. There was no background of systematized reactions and planned synthetic pathways. Preparative inorganic chemistry was a rather haphazard and intuitive discipline. In addition, the view was widely held that virtually all inorganic reactions were either very rapid or unselective. The products were determined by thermodynamic and solubility considerations, unlike those of organic reactions that were normally determined by kinetic and hence mechanistic factors. The few published studies of inorganic reactions in solution were initially motivated by problems somewhat removed from mechanism such as the study of salt effects, optical rotatory dispersion, stereochemical change, and the application of new or unusual methods to the study of reaction rates.
Inorganic chemistry has tended to lag behind organic chemistry in the determination of reaction mechanisms. The foundations and concepts of the mechanisms of reactions in solution were laid down between 1920 and 1945 and applied almost solely to the reactions of tetrahedral and planar carbon centres in organic compounds. It is not difficult to understand why carbon should be the first reaction centre to be studied in such detail,
(a) Organic compounds often undergo reaction at one centre, while all other bonds remain intact.
(b) The products of these reactions are generally kinetically controlled and so an indication of mechanism can be gained by a comparison of reactants and
