Chemical Reaction Mechanisms
The Student and Tutor worked through molecular orbital (MO) diagrams for diatomic and polyatomic molecules, starting with O- and O2- and then progressing to ammonia and water. They practiced constructing MO diagrams, identifying orbital symmetries, and classifying molecular orbitals as bonding, non-bonding, or anti-bonding. The next session was tentatively scheduled for Saturday, with a discussion about potentially covering point groups.
Symmetry Adapted Linear Combinations (SALCs)
Molecular Orbital Diagrams for Polyatomic Molecules (H₂O)
Molecular Orbital Diagram Construction (Diatomic)
Nodes and Molecular Orbital Energy
The tutor and student worked through problems related to molecular orbital theory, covering the formation and symmetry of sigma and pi molecular orbitals. They practiced drawing molecular orbital diagrams, calculating bond orders, and relating bond order to bond length for various diatomic species, including B2, O2, and H2 ions.
Bond Order and Bond Length Relationship
Symmetry and Electron Configuration in MO Diagrams
Bonding and Anti-bonding Molecular Orbitals
Atomic Orbital Overlap and Molecular Orbital Formation
The Tutor and Student reviewed a series of organic chemistry reaction mechanisms and synthesis problems, covering nucleophilic substitutions, eliminations, oxidations, reductions, and spectroscopic analysis for structure elucidation. They practiced applying reagents and predicting products for various transformations in preparation for an exam.
Wittig Reaction
Oxidation Reactions
Nucleophilic Addition to Carbonyls and Esters
Lactones and Amide Formation
Protection and Deprotection Strategies
Reduction Reactions
Stereoselective Synthesis and NMR Interpretation
The student and tutor began a new inorganic chemistry course, focusing on Lewis structures, VSEPR theory, and atomic orbital shapes. They practiced determining molecular geometries and drawing d orbitals, with plans to continue sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10 p.m. to cover remaining material.
Lewis Dot Structures
VSEPR Theory and Molecular Geometry
Atomic Orbitals (d-orbitals)
Molecular Geometry with Expanded Octets and Formal Charges
The Tutor and Student reviewed various organic chemistry reactions including epoxide opening, Diels-Alder reactions, Friedel-Crafts acylation, Wittig reactions, and Hofmann eliminations. They also practiced ranking compounds by basicity, hydrolysis rate, and carbonyl reactivity, and analyzed the functional groups and reactions of pharmaceutical compounds like Tamiflu and Fedrosol. The session served as a comprehensive review in preparation for an upcoming exam.
