I tried to teach an intro to atoms section this week to go with our periodic table introduction. They aren't getting that the atom is the whole of the parts (proton, neutron, electron, etc) I am talking about, so I think I will hold off on the "inversion of stereochemistry" for a few days :-)Lisa-tastrophieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04087582850469993109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684895611791698771.post-47854815864260976032009-09-06T09:04:52.874-06:002009-09-06T09:04:52.874-06:00Our classes started last Wednesday and we're w...Our classes started last Wednesday and we're working on drawing, reading and understanding organic molecules. I saw looks of fear with C-skeleton drawings. Hopefully with HW due tomorrow, we'll be ready to tackle functional groups and IR together.<br /><br />I can't wait to get to MO theory (I hope they like it too) and mechanisms.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17457421529855855765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684895611791698771.post-27219304311763613752009-09-05T09:07:46.581-06:002009-09-05T09:07:46.581-06:00It was merely an iodination reaction (R-OH -> R...It was merely an iodination reaction (R-OH -> R-I) and it was in my advanced organic chem class. <br /><br />In my sophomore level class, we're just starting alkanes.Chemgeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07803297898913358147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684895611791698771.post-77307867797756420672009-09-04T20:12:04.723-06:002009-09-04T20:12:04.723-06:00Oh, and what the hell?
