Question
Answer
show addition at carbonyl carbon; removal of leaving group  
🗑
ortho   show
🗑
show decreases bp because prevents inTERmolecular bonding from occuring  
🗑
intermolecular bond   show
🗑
show 1,4 position  
🗑
anisotropic effect   show
🗑
HOMO LUMO   show
🗑
show higher wavelength absorption; reflects blue  
🗑
lower conjugation   show
🗑
show tallest peak = most abundant ion; peak at largest value = molecular ion; (M-15 peak = loss of methy group)  
🗑
show nonhydrolyzable lipids; 4 fused rings  
🗑
gabriel synthesis   show
🗑
show highest # chiral carbon has S configuration; hydrogen drawn as dash  
🗑
show highest # chiral carbon has R configuration; hydrogen drawn as solid wedge  
🗑
show strong nucleophiles + polar aprotic solvent (DMSO, acetone); stereochem inversion at the carbon that is attacked  
🗑
sn1   show
🗑
show attached to carbon atoms on a straight/branched structure, 1-2ppm  
🗑
show weak reducing agent; selective to ketones  
🗑
show used when boiling points are under 150°C and at least 25°C apart  
🗑
fractional distillation   show
🗑
vacuum distillation   show
🗑
liquid liquid extraction   show
🗑
show nonpolar mobile phase, polar stationary phase; most polar elutes last (longer retention time) b/c it's attracted to stationary phase; for small sample sizes; mobile phase under pressure  
🗑
show acetaldehyde + ammonium chloride = imine; then add KCN to make a mixture of L + D amino acid  
🗑
show stationary phase = polar (travels less); mobile phase = nonpolar (travels more)  
🗑
aldehydes + ketones   show
🗑
show highest energy; least stable; fast formation path; favorable at low temps; less substituted is major product  
🗑
thermodynamic product   show
🗑
acetal   show
🗑
hemiacetal   show
🗑
show from ketones; OR-OR  
🗑
show from ketones; OR-OH  
🗑
ring strain   show
🗑
anhydride   show
🗑
rate limiting step   show
🗑
show mirror image; not superimposable  
🗑
show not mirror image; not superimposable  
🗑
show 6 membered sugar with oxygen in the ring  
🗑
eclipse conformation   show
🗑
staggered conformation   show
🗑
lactonization   show
🗑
lactamization   show
🗑
show increases bp  
🗑
short carbon chain   show
🗑
show glucose + fructose  
🗑
lactose   show
🗑
maltose   show
🗑
furanose   show
🗑
show ketohexose  
🗑
glucose   show
🗑
show aldohexose  
🗑
show aldopentose  
🗑
show distinguishes reducing sugars, and aldehydes from ketones bc aldehydes can be oxidized to carb acids  
🗑
boiling pt increasing order   show
🗑
show weak base; forms thermodynamic enolate (most substituted) by deprotonating most substituted alpha carbon  
🗑
show strong base; forms kinetic enolate (less substituted)  
🗑
M:M+2 ratio   show
🗑
show alcohol + carb acid; uses acid catalyst + heat  
🗑
show condensation of 2 carb acids OR carb acid + acid chloride  
🗑
KmNO4   show
🗑
show highest # stereocenter is R  
🗑
show highest # stereocenter is S  
🗑
show liquid stationary phase + gas mobile phase; higher bp travel slower (elutes last); lower bp travel faster (elutes first); column is heated  
🗑
show observed rotation/ (length in dm*conc.)  
🗑
aromatic proton splitting   show
🗑
ch2 splitting   show
🗑
hydroxyl splitting   show
🗑
1°, 2°, 3° alkyl hydrogens   show
🗑
rotatable bonds   show
🗑
size-exclusion chromatography   show
🗑
show down on ring structrue  
🗑
show up on ring structure  
🗑
show assesses secondary + tertiary structures (a-helices/B-sheets) by measuring diff. in polarize light absorption  
🗑
reducing sugar   show
🗑
show decreases bp b/c more surface area = less intermolecular interactions  
🗑
wax is made up of   show
🗑
degrees of unsaturation   show
🗑
hell-volhard zelinksy rxn   show
🗑
show NH2- < OH- < F- < Cl- < H2O < Br- < I-  
🗑
regioselective   show
🗑
stereoselective   show
🗑
epimer   show
🗑
retro aldol rxn   show
🗑
2-chloro-2-methylpropane   show
🗑
