Bond angle = 120° Bond angle = 109°28'
Assume a late transition state (Hammond postulate), so the
Angle of attack in the transition state should be closer to
The angles in the product, or about 110°
Nucleophiles attack C=O at an angle of about 110°, which is
called the Bürgi-Dunitz trajectory. George S. Hammond, 1921-2005
