Organic structures
Uni of Notts, fundamentals of inorganic and organic chemistry, first year
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Correct way to draw organic molecules | Framework structure: similar to skeletal formula (C-C bonds shown as zigzag black lines) with heteroatoms (not C or H) labelled and Me (methyl) labelling the alkyl ends of organic chains |
| How to display enantiomers using framework structure (amino acids example) | Display 3 heterogeneous groups (C-H not necessary to display) with 2 bonds being planar and the variable region in each extending into the plane (lines) or out of the plane (wedge) |
| Alicyclic molecules | Organic molecules that are cyclical but not aromatic, can be saturated or unsaturated |
| Benzene ring substituent nomenclature: 1,2- 1,3- 1,4- | 1,2-ortho- (o-) 1,3-meta- (m-) 1,4-para- (p-) |
