CHEM1002 - Resources for Week 4
Topics and Learning Outcomes
Alcohols
identify and name simple alcohols and phenols
explain why phenols are more acidic than alcohols
predict the products of oxidation of an alcohol and give the reagents required to perform this reaction
predict the products of the elimination of alcohols, using Zaitsev's rule, and give the reagents required to perform this reaction
Amines
identify an acid-base reaction occurring between two molecules
recognize that amines are both basic and nucleophilic
Stereochemistry
identify stereogenic centres in organic molecules
distinguish between different types of isomers, including enantiomers and diastereomers
use (R )- and (S )- descriptors to describe enantiomers and identify if a compouind has (R )- or (S )- stereochemistry
