Organic Compounds Containing Oxygen
UNIT 23: Organic Compounds Containing Oxygen
General methods of preparation, properties, reactions and uses.
Alcohols, Phenols and Ethers
Alcohols: Identification of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols; mechanism of dehydration.
Phenols:
Acidic nature, electrophilic substitution reactions: halogenation,
nitration and sulphonation, Reimer - Tiemann reaction.
Ethers: Structure.
Aldehyde and Ketones
Nature
of carbonyl group; Nucleophilic addition to >C=O group, relative
reactivities of aldehydes and ketones; Important reactions such as -
Nucleophilic addition reactions (addition of HCN, NH3 and its
derivatives), Grignard reagent; oxidation; reduction (Wolff Kishner and
Clemmensen); acidity of ? - hydrogen, aldol condensation, Cannizzaro
reaction, Haloform reaction; Chemical tests to distinguish between
aldehydes and Ketones.
Carboxylic Acids: Acidic strength and factors affecting it.
Organic Compounds Containing Nitrogen
UNIT 24: Organic Compounds Containing Nitrogen
General methods of preparation, properties, reactions and uses.
Amines: Nomenclature,
classification, structure, basic character and identification of
primary, secondary and tertiary amines and their basic character.
Diazonium Salts: Importance in synthetic organic chemistry.
Polymers
UNIT 25: Polymers
General
introduction and classification of polymers, general methods of
polymerization - addition and condensation, copolymerization;
Natural
and synthetic rubber and vulcanization; some important polymers with
emphasis on their monomers and uses - polythene, nylon, polyester and
bakelite.
Chemistry of Bio Molecules
UNIT 26: Bio Molecules
General introduction and importance of biomolecules.
Carbohydrates - Classification: aldoses and ketoses;
monosaccharides (glucose and fructose), constituent monosaccharides of
oligosacchorides (sucrose, lactose, maltose) and polysaccharides
(starch, cellulose, glycogen).
Proteins - Elementary Idea of amino acids, peptide bond,
polypeptides; Proteins: primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary
structure (qualitative idea only), denaturation of proteins, enzymes.
Vitamins - Classification and functions.
Nucleic Acids - Chemical constitution of DNA and RNA. Biological functions of nucleic acids.
