Organic Chemistry Functional Groups, Nomenclature, and Reactions - Prof. Don Davies, Study notes of Organic Chemistry

Various topics in organic chemistry, including nomenclature of functional groups such as amine oxides, hemiacetals, and nitrosoamines, and theorical concepts such as natural products containing nitrogen, carbonyl compounds, and amine resolution. It also includes mechanisms and synthesis problems, and an extra credit problem for the conversion of phenylacetylene to an α-aminoalcohol product.
