Curved Arrow Pushing | 6.5 Organic Chemistry

Chad presents an introduction to reaction mechanisms and curved arrow-pushing. He works examples for each of the 4 major types of steps in organic reaction mechanisms:
1) Nucleophilic Attack
2) Loss of Leaving Group
3) Proton Transfer (Acid-Base)
4) Rearrangement (Carbocation Rearrangement specifically)
Chad finishes the lesson by working an example involving radicals.
