摘要
Electron transfer from K atoms to oriented acetic acid molecules produces acetate ions (and K+) when the CO2H end of the molecule is attacked. The electron enters the pi(*)(CO) orbital and the donor atom distorts the molecule to allow migration to the sigma(*)(OH) orbital, thereby breaking the bond.
