About IIT JEE Organic Chemistry - Name Reactions Video Lectures

IIT JEE Organic Chemistry - Name Reactions covers the basic concepts, examples and questions to prepare for JEE Main and JEE Advanced (earlier IIT JEE, AIEEE) and other engineering exams and medical entrance exams (NEET). It will also help you with your school level exams in Chemistry.

Included in IIT JEE Organic Chemistry - Name Reactions video lectures Description
Name Reactions Part 1 - Haloform Discussion on functional groups that undergo haloform reaction; Alcohols reaction (except Methanol) with I2, secondary alcohols' reaction which have OH at the 2nd carbon; Concept that tertiary alcohols do not participate in haloform reaction; Ease of oxidation between primary / secondary / tertiary alcohols; Preparation of Chloroform by Ethanol; Use of Iodoform in distinguishing between Methanol and Ethanol; Explanation of the Test; Example of distinguishing 2-pentanol vs. 3-pentanol; More examples; Concept that carboxylic acids do not show Iodoform reaction because carboxylic acids react with base and do not undergo halogenation (and since halogenation is a slow covalent reaction, whereas acid - base reactions tend to be very fast);

  • Name Reactions Part 5 - Examples Aldol Condensation
Name Reactions Part 6 - Birch Reduction And Others Birch reduction for non terminal alkynes; Concept that Birch reduction is a trans reduction; Examples of Birch reduction; Brown Hydroboronation (BH3 or B2H6); Example of reductive coupling (R-CH=CH2 to R-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-R); Example of Hydrolysis by anti Markovnikov's rule; Discussion on Cannizaro Reaction, mechanism and examples;
Name Reactions Part 7 - Cannizaro And Others Examples of Cannizaro reaction; Intramolecular Cannizaro reaction; Concept that ketones are not easily oxidized, so in Intramolecular Cannizaro reaction Ketones get reduced and aldehydes get oxidized;
