About Us

kChem Tutorials is building a website with links to tutorial videos in the different branches of Chemistry

We will begin the building process with videos from organic chemistry.  We hope to have the first stages done by the end of summer 2021.

However, we will be posting each video as they are made, as well as keeping an organized topics list so that you may easily find what you are looking for.

Nomenclature

How to name organic molecules

Stereochemistry

Three dimensional aspects of organic molecules

General Organic Reactions

This will give us a basic idea of types of organic reactions

Alkane Reactions

There are not many but we will look at a few reactions on regular single bonded carbons

Alkene Reactions

We will look at the formation of and reactions on C=C double bonds

Alkyne Reactions

We will look at the formation of and reactions on C≡C triple bonds

SN2, SN1

We will look at the parameters affecting substitution reactions

E2, E1

We will look at the parameters affecting elimination reactions

IR, NMR

We will look at some of the analytical techniques used to identify organic molecules
