Module 6 Organic chemistry and analysis

Handwritten, detailed notes with diagrams when suitable. Covers all topics in module 6.

Diagrams showing the synthesis pathways of aromatic compounds, including benzene and phenols. Reagents, conditions and reaction type are colour coordinated (E.S = electrophilic substitution, N.A = nucleophilic addition)

Mind map showing all the synthesis routes of aliphatic compounds. Reagents, conditions, reaction type and mechanism are colour coordinated and written above their respective arrows.

Here it will summarise how TLC is used and the different tests for organic functional groups

Here it will describe the different synthetic routes to different compounds for multi- stage synthesis and also involves the formation of acyl chlorides and esters

For students doing A Level Chemistry under the OCR A specification. This module is NOT for AS Level. The main themes in this summary guide include: Aromatic compounds; Carbonyl compounds; Carboxylic acids and esters; Nitrogen compounds; Polymers; Organic synthesis; Chromatography and spectroscopy (NMR). The chapters are condensed into concise snippets, less than A4 page, for effective revision.
