Organic Chemistry — Practice Set 2

Three-dimensional organic chemistry: chirality and stereocentres, the R/S (Cahn–Ingold–Prelog) system, optical activity and specific rotation, enantiomers, diastereomers and meso compounds, E/Z alkene configuration, Fischer and Newman projections, conformational analysis of acyclic chains and of cyclohexane (chair, axial/equatorial, ring flip), and the stereochemical consequences of reactions.
