A Level Chemistry a for OCR Student Book notes (1st edition)

This is a summary of the reaction mechanisms learned during Module 4, Core Organic Chemistry from the OCR A-Level Chemistry Textbook. This document consists of four sheets, one for each organic compound (alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and haloalkanes) with a quick recap of the reaction mechanisms each one under-gos. Including Free-Radical Substitution, Electrophilic Addition and more... These revision sheets would be recommended for an overview of the reaction mechanisms from Year 1. These ...

This summary sheet provides a detailed revision of Polymers, Amino Acids and Amides from Module 6 of the OCR A-Level Chemistry textbook, although the material is applicable to any exam board. There are key definitions, diagrams and tables followed by detailed explanations of the reactions of the amine group and the carboxylic acid group. This revision sheet covers chirality, naming amides, the formation of polyesters & polyamides and revision of condensation polymerisation. I'd recommend ...

This summary sheet provides a detailed revision of Amines taken from Module 6 of the OCR A-Level Chemistry textbook, although the material is applicable to any exam board. There are key definitions and diagrams followed by an explanation of how Amines are named, Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Amines, Making Amines and a description of how Amines form dative covalent bonds. There's also revision of the formation of Aromatic Amines and thorough description of the Reduction of a Nitrile. I...
