Preparation of 1-bromobutane

(0)
A knowledge organiser on the A-level chemistry practical “preparation of 1-bromobutane”. The knowledge organiser includes the method, apparatus diagram and physical data (density, boiling point etc). It then includes information on each stage of the process, reflux, distillation, washing, drying and redistillation. I use it in my lessons to go through the procedure in greater depth and then students refer to this when practising questions.
NMR Spectra

Organic mechanisms

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry resource on the mechanisms of organic compounds. The worksheet requires students to write the mechanisms for the free radical substitution reaction of alkanes with chlorine, electrophillic addition of alkenes with bromine, hydrogen bromide (include markovnikovs rule and the inductive effect).
