A reaction intermediate is a transient species formed during a multi-step reaction, consumed in a subsequent step. Intermediates are often unstable or short-lived, detected by techniques like spectroscopy or trapping experiments. Examples include carbocations and free radicals in organic mechanisms. Identifying intermediates clarifies how a reaction proceeds and enables targeted manipulation of the mechanism for desired products.
