Analogy of the Reactions of Aromatic and Aliphatic π-Electrophiles with Nucleophiles

Abstract
The aim of this essay is to disclose the similarity of a great variety of reactions that proceed between nucleophiles and pi-electrophiles—both aromatic and aliphatic. These reactions proceed via initial reversible addition, followed by a variety of transformations that are common for the adducts of both aliphatic and aromatic electrophiles. We hope that understanding of this analogy should help to expand the scope of the known reactions and inspire the search for new reactions that were overlooked.
