You should be able to:
- * Nomenclature: Given a structure write the IUPAC name, or given an IUPAC or common name draw the structure, for any alkyne or alkadiene. [9.2]
- * Stereochemistry:
- * Recognize and draw stereoisomers (enantiomers, diastereomers, and meso compounds) using Fischer, Newman, sawhorse, wedge-and-dash, and cyclohexane chair stereo projections. [7.1-7.5, 7.7]
- Assign R or S absolute configurations to stereogenic centers. [7.6]
- * Predict the stereochemical outcome of chemical reactions. [7.9, 7.13]
- * Mechanisms:
- * Predict when SN1, SN2, E1, or E2 mechanisms will occur in a chemical reaction and predict the structures of the products, including stereochemistry. [8.4-8.14]
- Be familiar with stereochemical consequences of applying particular mechanisms. [7.13, 8.8]
- *Reactions: Carry out single-step
reactions and multistep syntheses using:
- * Nucleophilic substitution [8.1, 8.15]
- * Preparation of alkynes
- alkylation of acetylene [9.7]
- elimination of dihalides [9.8]
- * Reactions of alkynes
- hydrogenation [9.10]
- reduction [9.11]
- addition of hydrogen halides [9.12]
- hydration [9.13]
- addition of halogens [9.14]
- ozonolysis [9.15]
