CHEM1904 - Resources for Week 5
Topics and Learning Outcomes
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 convert between stereo structures and Fischer projections determine the maximum number of isomers possible in a compound with more than one stereogenic centre identify meso compounds and when to expect them
Organic Halogen Compounds
identify and name organic halogen compounds predict the products of the elimination of alkyl halides, using Zaitsev's rule, and give the reagents required to perform this reaction Identify the products of nucleophilic substitution of alkyl halides determine the nucleophile required to react with an alkyl halide to give a specified product appreciate that nucleophilic substitution follows two mechanisms and the factors that effect each mechanism
