nitrile functional group
-C=_N
nitrile nomenclature
alkane nitrile
thiol functional group
-C-SH
thiol nomenclature

nomenclature priority
-COOH > ester > amide > nitrile > -CHO > ketone > alcohol > amine > C=C > alkyne > alkane > ether > alkyl halide = alkyl
DBE formula
1/2 (2n4 + n3 - n1 + 2)
newman projection terminology
staggered vs. eclipsed (anti, gauche and syn)
electrostatic potential map colours
red = electron-rich (high electron density) blue = electron-poor (low electron density)
types of intermolecular forces
- momentary dipole-dipole attractions (dispersion forces)
- dipole-dipole interactions
- hydrogen bonding
chromatography components
- solvent/mobile liquid phase = relatively non-polar
- absorbent/solid stationary phase = polar
chromatography mechanism
if solute is:
- polar = more strongly attracted to polar stationary phase thus moves slowly
- non-polar = less attracted to polar stationary phase thus moves rapidly
substitution bond changes
same type of bonds (sigma) broken and formed
substitution DBE changes
DBE remains same
