regioselectivity (regioselective)A regioselective reaction is one in which one direction of bond making orbreaking occurs preferentially over all other possible directions. Reactionsare termed completely (100%) regioselective if the discrimination is com-plete, or partially (x%), if the product of reaction at one site predominatesover the product of reaction at other sites. The discrimination may alsosemi-quantitatively be referred to as high or low regioselectivity. (Origi-nally the term was restricted to addition reactions of unsymmetrical re-agents to unsymmetrical alkenes.)In the past, the term regiospecificity was proposed for 100% regioselec-tivity. This terminology is not recommended owing to inconsistency withthe terms stereoselectivity and stereospecificity.
