Document Summary
Special types of carbons and substituents, degrees of unsaturation: forces of interaction and physical properties, properties of atoms, (ionization potential, zeff, radii, electronegativity), Logic arguments of organic chemistry (inductive, resonance, steric) It has been designed so that no one question will make or break you. The best strategy is to work steadily, starting with those problems you understand best. Make sure you show all of your work. Draw in any lone pairs of electrons, formal charge and curved arrows to show electron movement where appropriate. Do your best to show me what you know in the time available. Albert einstein: provide an acceptable name for the following molecule. Only specify r and s where shown as 3d. (30 pts: indicate all formal charges present in the following structures. Assume all electrons are shown as lines or dots. If other reasonable resonance structures are possible, draw the best other resonance structure using the proper arrow conventions.
