why? up until now i thought having bonds with a * orbital would be less favourable?

1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:

as abmo are destructive?

Ig

Which book is it may I ask

[peak nacelle]

Well let me clarify one thing , the backside approach is favored in nucleophillic substitution reactions because it allows the nucleophilie to interact effectively with the Anti-bonding orbital, weakening the C-L bond and promoting the departure of the leaving group

Which is leading to a more stable transition state and efficient bond formation

But this happens in sn2 right

[peak nacelle]

Yes

That's correct

[proper oriole]

ohh so that is what is meant there

i see

[proper oriole]

oh yeah i forgot to mention i was talking about sn2

Guys this can also be seen in synergic bonding in coordination
