User:MarissaGrosz/Electron-withdrawing group/GurkiratSinghNijjar Peer Review

First, what does the article do well? Is there anything from your review that impressed you?

Any turn of phrase that described the subject in a clear way?

The article provides a comprehensive and informative overview of electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) and their effects on various chemical processes. It covers the concept of EWGs, their impact on reactions involving electron transfer, acid-base reactions, nucleophilic substitution reactions, and Lewis acidity. It also discusses their applications in photovoltaic technology and their influence on the acidity of compounds. What impresses me about the article is its clear and organized presentation of the information. It defines the concept of EWGs and explains their effects on different types of chemical reactions, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the field. The examples provided, such as the use of DPQCF3F in polymer solar cells, help illustrate the practical significance of EWGs in real-world applications. Additionally, the article effectively contrasts EWGs with electron-donating groups (EDGs), which helps readers understand the key differences between these two types of functional groups. Overall, the article is well-structured, uses clear and concise language, and provides useful examples to enhance understanding. But there is some room for improvement which I will mention in the following sections.

• What changes would you suggest the author apply to the article? Why would those changes be

an improvement?

To enhance the usefulness of this page for undergraduate students, it's essential to offer additional background information on electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) in the context of undergraduate courses. This page has the potential to function as a concise reference guide for undergraduate students interested in EWGs. This can be achieved by including more detailed sections on the activation and deactivation of benzene rings, along with a focus on explaining directing effects. Moreover, having some visual aids like diagrams, chemical structures, and reaction mechanisms can greatly enhance the reader's understanding. Visual representations make it easier to grasp the concepts and their real-world applications. The article will benefit from more specific and practical examples of molecules or reactions involving electron-withdrawing groups covered in second- and third-year chemistry courses. These examples would make the content more engaging and relatable to readers. For example, explaining EWG effects in Friedel-Crafts reactions. Lastly, using brogan to simplify complex language will polish your article even further.

• What's the most important thing the author could do to improve the article?

Visual Aids: Including diagrams, chemical structures, and reaction mechanisms to visually represent the concepts and reactions involving electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs). Visual aids can significantly enhance the understanding of the topic for second or third-year chemistry students.

Tailoring towards undergrad students: Design the content with a focus on second or third-year chemistry students. This means presenting the information in a way that aligns with the knowledge and level of understanding typically expected at this stage of undergraduate education.

Detailed Sections: Expand on the sections that cover the activation and deactivation of benzene rings and the directing effects. Provide comprehensive explanations and examples to ensure a thorough understanding of these essential concepts.

• Did you notice anything about the article you reviewed that could be applicable to your own

article? Let them know!

Good job on the article. It features a well-structured and easily comprehensible introductory section, and it presents information from reliable sources in a neutral manner. I believe there are some valuable lessons from this article that can be applied to my own work. These include the integration of visual aids, adapting the content to cater to the specific requirements of undergraduate students for better understanding of the discussed concepts, and employing jargon-free language to simplify complex ideas.

In general, the best Wikipedia articles have five elements:

1. A lead section that is easy to understand

2. A clear structure

3. Balanced coverage

4. Neutral content

5. Reliable sources
