Organic Chemistry Problem-Solving Approach
NOTES:
For each homologous series, there are essentially 3 main areas of focus:
- Structure & Bonding
- Physical Properties (Trends)
- Chemical Properties (Reactions and Mechanism)
TYPES OF QUESTIONS:
- Reactions
- Synthesis
- Distinguishing
- Elucidation
-
Arenes (overview)
← Back to Arenes Structure & Bonding All C atoms in benzene are sp2 hybridised → benzene is planar π e– are delocalised within the benzene ring → (i) added stability due to charge dispersal and (ii) all C–C...
