Improvements
edit- Provide a more detailed mechanism (if possible, give an arrow-pushing mechanism image)
- add an application that uses this reaction to strengthen the article
- include reaction advantage (eg. how is this reaction preferred over other reductive reactions) and weaknesses (eg. under what conditions would this reaction not work)
@Shiba111:. Keep the references general. Read: WP:SECONDARY or better WP:TERTIARY. Understand the difference between apps and claims. No words in any artwork. Words go into caption please. Good luck. --Smokefoot (talk) 19:48, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- So far, the only decent ref to Clemmensen in your sandbox is https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-50865-4_31. Please avoid computational analyses of mechanism. The other refs would be removed by me or other editors most likely. Rely on books (Organic Reactions is one of the very best). --Smokefoot (talk) 20:52, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- Suspect journal. Good chance that its predatory (ask your teacher to explain). Like I said, Org Reactions is excellent and deep. Its a little old, but deep. There must be something in there to satisfy your homework. --Smokefoot (talk) 02:30, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
@Smokefoot: Here is my draft for the improved article. If you have a chance please take a look and let me know if there is anything I should change. Thank you!(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Shiba111/Clemmensen_reduction).
