Is this for me? yes, if you study chemistry at the KUN Which subjects are treated? a selection of subjects from the textbook What will I learn? organic chemistry in three dimensions What do I need to start? some knowledge of MOPAC input files Is there more? links to other, related web courses |
| Module 1: Conformations of n-alkanes | In this module you will learn about the conformations of n-alkanes as well as the potential energy of those molecules as a function of the conformation. |
| Module 2: Conformations of cyclohexane | In this module, you will learn which factors influence the stability of a conformation. Knowledge of these factors enables one to make predictions about the most probable conformation of a molecule. |
| Module 3: Stereoisomerism of cyclic compounds | This module introduces you to cis-trans isomerism in cyclic compounds. Eventually, you will learn about the impact of stereochemistry on elimination reactions in cyclic compounds. |
