Summary Chapter 26 - Compounds Containing the Carbonyl Group
I got an A* in my chemistry A-Level using the notes that I have uploaded and I am currently studying chemistry at the University of Birmingham. These revision notes include detail on physical properties of the carbonyl group (polarity, solubility, reactivity), equations/mechanisms for reactions of the carbonyl group in aldehydes and ketones (nucleophilic addition, oxidation, reduction), reflux, physical properties of carboxylic acids and esters, reactions of carboxylic acids with carbonates, formation of esters from carboxylic acids and alcohol, acidic and basic hydrolysis of esters, mechanism for basic hydrolysis of esters, reasons behind the solubility of esters, soap, biodiesel, acylation, nucleophilic addition-elimination mechanisms, advantages and disadvantages of ethanoyl chloride and ethanoic anhydride.
