text: Archaic reactions that most introductory texts treat as sacred cows (e.g. oxymercuration and PCC oxidation) are de-emphasized or given the boot, to make room for newer reactions that are actually used by modern chemists but ignored by intro textbooks (e.g. Swern, DMP oxidation, Mitsunobu reaction).
