The next obstacle betweeen Persimmon Pesky and her application to medical school is organic chemistry. Ugh. So many carbon-based challenges here. So much memorization! She has flash cards all over the place, trying to learn these chemicals. See how well you can do with these problems to find coordinates assuming N40 17.ABC W74 10.DEF
What is the following molecule? Ethanol (A=7), Methanol (A=6), Ethylene Glycol (A=5).
What is the conjugate acid for H2O? H3O+(B=1), H2O-(B=0), H3O3(B=9).
What is the IUPAC name for CH3CHClCH(CH3)CH2CH2CH2CH2Br?
1-bromo-6-chloro-5-methylheptane (C=3)
7-bromo-2-chloro-3-methylheptane (C=2)
1-bromo-6-chloro-5,6-dimethylhexane (C=4)
6-bromo-1-chloro-1,2-dimethylhexane (C=5)
How is the following reaction best classified? (CH3)3CBr + (CH3CH2)3N -----> (CH3)2C=CH2 + (CH3CH2)3NH(+) Br(-)
SN2 substitution (D=1)
E2 elimination (D=3)
electrophilic addition (D=4)
cationic rearrangement (D=8)
E2 elimination (D=6)
This is a type of isomerization reaction where funtional groups interconvert, like enol to ketone.
Strecker synthesis (E=9)
tautomerization (E=2)
ozonolysis (E=7)
Tobinson annulation (E=0)
This functional group arises when a primary alcohol is oxidized by PCC (pyridinium chlorochromate)?
alcohol (F=0)
alkene (F=2)
aldehyde (F=7)
imine (F=5)
