Talk:Meisenheimer complex

Latest comment: 14 years ago by 156.17.103.54

The discussion of the Zimmermann reaction is partly incorrect (the base is not the oxidant). The formula of the enolate misses one hydrogen at the carbanionic site - the scheme should be reworked. The reference is wrong - it should be the preceding paper in the volume: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/jo00289a043, even though the pertinent discussion is on the final page :)
