This video tutorial focuses on the organic chemistry section of the PCAT. It provides a nice review of the first two semesters of organic chemistry.
Here is a list of topics:
1. Nomenclature and Functional Groups
2. Hybridization, Bond Angle, and Molecular Geometry
3. Sigma and Pi Bonds, Bond Strength vs Length
4. Acids and Bases Periodic Trend - pKa
5. Resonance Structures - Curve Arrow Notation
6. Newman Projections of Butane - Gauche, Anti, Staggered, Eclipse
7. Conformations of Cyclohexane - Chair, Half Chair, Twist Boat
8. Torsional vs Steric Strain and 1,3 Diaxial Interactions
9. Potential Energy Diagrams - Kinetics and Rate Law
10. Catalyst, Activation Energy, Rate Determining Step
11. Initiation, Propagation, and Termination
12. Bromination vs Chlorination Selective vs Nonselective Reactions
13. Stereochemistry - Enantiomers, Diastereomers, and Meso Compounds - R / S Configuration, Chirality and Optical Activity
14. Electrophilic Addition Reactions of Alkenes and Alkynes
15. Acid Catalyzed Hydration, Hydroboration Oxidation, Oxymercuration Demercuration, and Ozonolysis
16. SN2, SN1, E1, and E2 reaction mechanism
17. Polar protic vs aprotic solvents - Nucleophiles and Leaving Groups
18. Inversion of Configuration vs Racemic Mixture
