Introduction To IUPAC Nomenclature
Naming Organic Compounds Series: Video 1 This video is designed to give you an introduction to my ‘puzzle approach’ to IUPAC Nomenclature. Many orgo students find the topic of naming to be difficult or tricky when they attempt to name a large molecule in one shot. However, in this video I show you how to […]
Naming Straight Chain Alkanes
Naming Organic Compounds Series: Video 2 This naming tutorial video takes you through the basics of applying the puzzle pieces ‘first name’ and ‘last name’ when it comes to naming a straight-chain or simple alkane. Video includes a number of practice problems for recognition of line structure, condensed formula, and structural formulas. (Watch on YouTube: […]
