Each week I will provide suggested problems and other material. The problems will not be graded, they are for you to practice with |

Test material can come from the textbook, your notes, assigned problems or problem sets. We do not have time to cover every topic in detail in class. If a subject is "taught" in an assigned problem on this page or in one of the problem sets, then I consider it to be "fair game" for a test. I do not assign textbook reading each week, since it is difficult to me to know in advance exactly what topic we will be covering each week. However, in the Lecture Notes page, there is given a detailed list that relates the lecture notes to the relevant textbook chapters, so that you can design your own advance reading schedule if you wish. On each midterm and final exam there will be one 5 pt. extra credit question that is taken from one of the "O-Chem in Real Life" links that are posted here every week. |
You should expect to be able to do these problems by the END of the week, although sometimes we don't get as far as I think we will, so if something looks unfamiliar, we may just not have covered it yet Check the assigned TEXTBOOK problems for this section of the notes Website Problems: Ether/Epoxide Reactions (these are updated since last week) Diels-Alder Reactions (from last week) Molecular orbitals of Conjugated Systems Additional Retrosynthesis Problems. You may not cover all of the reactions required to solve these problems until the end of the week, or perhaps next week, depending upon how fast we go! Most of these are from last week, I don't have many problems that include conjugated reactions, this is a moore conceptual part of the course. Problem 1 : Answer Problem 2 : Answer Problem 3 : Answer Problem 4 : Answer Problem 5 : Answer Each week until the end of the semester there will be assigned problems from the ASU Retrosynthesis website. Some of these problems are for credit, others are for you to practice with. Problems will be assigned each week, but you can revisit these problems at any time. All login problems should now be solved, but we still have the problem with certain browsers not recording your credit properly. Don't worry, nobody will lose any credit because of this problem. You should login using your last name in all lowercase, together with your posting ID. The number of questions that are available for credit varies each week, I don't know how many credit questions will be posted this semester, the total credits will be normalized to a maximum of 40 points at the end of the semester. To access the website, click HERE. There will be 2 spectrum problems to solve each week, starting with a molecular formula, this is how they will be on a test: Combined Spectral Problem #1 Combined Spectral Problem #2 Do you like art? | youtube1 | youtube2 |O-Chem in real Life 7: Anti-Bonding Orbitals |
