Organic synthesis
🔹 1. Identifying Functional Groups, Predicting Properties and Reactions Organic synthesis begins with understanding functional groups, their chemical behavior, and how they transform in reactions. Common functional groups include: Functional Group General Formula Detection / Reactions Alkene C=C Decolourises Br₂(aq), electrophilic addition Alcohol –OH Oxidised to aldehydes, ketones, or carboxylic acids (K₂Cr₂O₇ / H⁺) Halogenoalkane […]
