Abstract
Since the classical studies by Ingold in the nineteen thirties the mechanism of the aliphatic nucleophilic substitution reaction has been described as a polar two-electron mechanism in which the nucleophile transfers two electrons to the new bond which is established to the electrophilic center. Depending on the reaction order the abbreviations SN1 and SN2 were used for first-order and second-order reactions, respectively.
