reaction sequence
A reaction sequence is a "suggested mechanism" that is based on incomplete experimental data. For many reactions, all mechanistic information is not available. It is not appropriate to use the term "mechanism" to describe a statement of the "probable" sequence in a set of stepwise reactions. That should be referred to as a "reaction sequence", and not a "mechanism."
