What Organic Chemistry is, the General Chemistry it builds on, and how to prepare for the first semester.

Organic 1

Structure, bonding, stereochemistry and the first reactions: substitution, elimination and addition. In teaching order.

Organic 2

Alcohols through amines: aromaticity, carbonyl chemistry and more advanced mechanistic reasoning.

Mechanism

How to read and predict a mechanism: the clues, the arrows, the key patterns, and a video for every named reaction.

Spectroscopy

Working out structure from IR, mass spectrometry, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, with practice on unknowns.

Practice & reference

42 interactive apps and quizzes, a glossary with pronunciations, and the interactive periodic table.
