Study Notes

Oxidation in Organic Chemistry

The relevant criterion for organic oxidation is the loss of one or more electrons.
In oxidations, the electron density of a molecule decreases.

Reduction in Organic Chemistry

Classical reductions in organic chemistry include the addition of hydrogen or other reagents to a molecule.
Many oxidations involve the removal of one or more hydrogen atoms from a molecule.
