Addition: HCl + ethylene
0 arrows drawnEthylene attacks HCl. The alkene pi bond grabs the proton, the H-Cl bond breaks onto chloride, and you end up with chloroethane. The carbocation intermediate is collapsed here so the two arrows look concerted.
Click an atom to start an arrow from a lone pair, or click a bond to start an arrow from that bond. Then click the atom or bond where the electrons land. Atoms are numbered by their position in the SMILES string. Keyboard: Tab to cycle focus, Enter to commit, Esc to cancel. Drag the small handle on a drawn arrow to sculpt the curve; double-click to reset.
