elektronipitoinen
Elektronipitoinen is a Finnish term that translates to "electron-rich" in English. It is primarily used in chemistry to describe a molecule, atom, or region within a molecule that possesses a high electron density. This high electron density can arise from the presence of lone pairs of electrons, pi bonds, or electronegative atoms that donate electron density.
In chemical reactions, electron-rich species often act as nucleophiles. Nucleophiles are attracted to electron-deficient centers (electrophiles)
Examples of electron-rich species include carbanions, amines, alkoxides, and compounds containing aromatic rings. The concept of
