Alkynes: An Introduction to Organic Synthesis Last document update:   ago

Hydrocarbons that contain carbon-carbon triple bonds.  Acetylene, the simplest alkyne is produced industrially from methane and steam at high temperature.  Our study of alkynes provides an introduction to organic synthesis, the preparation of organic molecules from simpler organic molecules.

Alkenes and Alkynes Last document update:   ago

I got a 1st in my first year studying chemistry at the University of Birmingham using these revision notes that I have uploaded. They include detail on the structure and bonding of alkenes, consequences of the pi bond, E- and Z- isomers, stability of alkenes, bonding and geometry of alkynes, acidity of alkanes, alkenes and alkynes, elimination (making alkenes from alkyl halides), the Wittig Reaction, synthesis of alkenes from alkynes, dissolving metal reduction, synthesis of alkynes from differe...
