ORGANIC SYNTHESIS KNOCKHARDY PUBLISHING 2008 SPECIFICATIONS KNOCKHARDY PUBLISHING ORGANIC SYNTHESIS INTRODUCTION This Powerpoint show is one of several produced to help students understand selected topics at AS and A2 level Chemistry. It is based on the requirements of the AQA and OCR specifications but is suitable for other examination boards. Individual students may use the material at home for revision purposes or it may be used for classroom teaching with an interactive white board. Accompanying notes on this, and the full range of AS and A2 topics, are available from the KNOCKHARDY SCIENCE WEBSITE at... www.knockhardy.org.uk/sci.htm Navigation is achieved by... either clicking on the grey arrows at the foot of each page or using the left and right arrow keys on the keyboard ORGANIC SYNTHESIS CONTENTS • Introduction • Functional groups • Chiral synthesis - introduction • Nucleophilic addition • Nucleophilic substitution • Synthetic methods ORGANIC SYNTHESIS Involves the preparation of new compounds from others. ORGANIC SYNTHESIS Involves the preparation of new compounds from others. Many industrial processes involve a multi stage process where functional groups are converted into other functional groups.

NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION Problems There are two possible mechanisms SN1 This produces a racemic mixture of two optical isomers Called SN1 because one species is involved in the rate determining step.
