Editorial Reviews

The Standard Deviants have the tools you'll need to learn more advanced organic chemistry concepts. Organic Chemistry Part 3 begins by demonstating electrophilic addition reactions and takes you through alkynes and alkyne reactions. This tape is sure to make you more of an expert at organic chemistry than you ever thought you could be!

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent study guide, January 9, 2005

This review is from: The Standard Deviants: Organic Chemistry, Part 3 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video is an excellent study guide for organic chemistry. It reviews concepts learned earlier in the course (electrophilic additions) and applies them to more advanced reactions.

Reactions and concepts reviewed in this video are

Addition of HX to an alkene

Hydration

Halogen Addition

Halohydrin Formation

Oxymercuration

Hydroboration/Oxidation

Hydrogenation

Hydroxylation

Ozonolysis

Oxidative Cleavage

and alkyne reactions

Halogen addition

Haloacid to an alkyne

Mercuric Ion-Catalyzed Hydration

Hydroboration/Oxidation

Reductions (Pd catalyis, Ni2B catalyst, dissolving metals)

Oxidative Cleavage

Students narrate the video, not some wacky professor. They give plenty of tips to help you remember which reaction is which.

This will absolutely help reinforce and clear up concepts from your organic chemistry course. I feel like I'm pretty smart, but there were some areas where I felt like the classroom instruction was lacking and I had a little confusion with some areas. These videos straightened me right out! But FYI - you can't use them instead of class - you should still read the book and go to class. Still, I'm really glad I got them and relieved because I'm not lost on anything now. They're also not too long, and everything is broken up with silliness here and there to keep you from feeling overloaded. Works like a charm.
