Name Reactions Complete Lecture Series

Name Reactions are important organic reactions named after the scientists who discovered them. These reactions are frequently asked in CSIR NET, GATE, IIT JAM, SET, MSc Entrance and other chemistry competitive examinations.

Yes. All 19 lectures are available free of cost along with downloadable PDF notes provided by Chiral Academy.

This course is useful for CSIR NET Chemical Sciences, GATE Chemistry, IIT JAM, SET, MSc Entrance and other university entrance examinations.

Yes. Every lecture includes downloadable PDF notes that summarize important concepts, mechanisms and reactions.

The course contains 19 complete lectures covering more than 50 important Organic Chemistry Name Reactions from basic to advanced level.

Yes. The course starts with the fundamentals of Carbanions, Enolization and Enolates before progressing to advanced Name Reactions, making it suitable for both beginners and advanced learners.

Yes. The lectures are designed with an exam-oriented approach and include reaction mechanisms, shortcuts and concepts frequently asked in previous year papers.

After completing this course, you should continue with General Organic Chemistry (GOC), Organic Reaction Mechanism, Stereochemistry, Named Reagents and Spectroscopy for complete Organic Chemistry preparation.

This course covers more than 50 important Organic Chemistry Name Reactions including Aldol Condensation, Michael Addition, Mannich Reaction, Knoevenagel Condensation, Claisen Condensation, Dieckmann Condensation, Perkin Reaction, Cannizzaro Reaction, Benzoin Condensation, Benzilic Acid Rearrangement, Reformatsky Reaction, Favorskii Rearrangement, Darzens Reaction, Hell–Volhard–Zelinsky (HVZ) Reaction, Chugaev Elimination, Julia Olefination, Julia–Kocienski Olefination, Shapiro Reaction, Bamford–Stevens Reaction, Peterson Olefination, Wittig Reaction, Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons (HWE) Reaction, Schlosser Wittig Reaction, Corey–Winter Reaction, Ramberg–Backlund Rearrangement, Neber Rearrangement and many more. The course starts with the fundamentals of Carbanions, Enolization and Enolates before progressing to advanced name reactions.

There is no official list of Name Reactions prescribed for CSIR NET Chemical Sciences or GATE Chemistry. Students should prepare all important Organic Chemistry Name Reactions because questions can be asked from any standard reaction involving reaction mechanism, reagents, stereochemistry, selectivity or synthetic applications.

The important Name Reactions include: Aldol Condensation, Michael Addition, Claisen Condensation, Dieckmann Condensation, Knoevenagel Condensation, Stobbe Condensation, Henry (Nitroaldol) Reaction, Nef Reaction, Mannich Reaction, Perkin Reaction, Haloform Reaction, Cannizzaro Reaction, Benzoin Condensation, Benzilic Acid Rearrangement, Reformatsky Reaction, Darzens Reaction, Favorskii Rearrangement, Hell–Volhard–Zelinsky (HVZ) Reaction, Chugaev Elimination, Julia Olefination, Julia–Kocienski Olefination, Wittig Reaction, Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons (HWE) Reaction, Schlosser Wittig Reaction, Peterson Olefination, Shapiro Reaction, Bamford–Stevens Reaction, Corey–Winter Reaction, Ramberg–Backlund Rearrangement, Neber Rearrangement, Beckmann Rearrangement, Pinacol Rearrangement, Baeyer–Villiger Oxidation, Wolff Rearrangement, Curtius Rearrangement, Hofmann Rearrangement, Schmidt Reaction, Lossen Rearrangement, Fries Rearrangement, Claisen Rearrangement, Cope Rearrangement, Oxy-Cope Rearrangement, Wagner–Meerwein Rearrangement, Stevens Rearrangement, Sommelet–Hauser Rearrangement, Brook Rearrangement, Pummerer Rearrangement, Fischer Indole Synthesis, Paal–Knorr Synthesis, Skraup Synthesis, Friedel–Crafts Alkylation, Friedel–Crafts Acylation, Clemmensen Reduction, Wolff–Kishner Reduction, Birch Reduction, Rosenmund Reduction, Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley Reduction, Oppenauer Oxidation, Swern Oxidation, PCC Oxidation, Jones Oxidation, Sharpless Epoxidation, Sharpless Dihydroxylation, Mitsunobu Reaction, Sandmeyer Reaction, Gattermann Reaction, Gattermann–Koch Reaction, Reimer–Tiemann Reaction, Kolbe–Schmitt Reaction, Williamson Ether Synthesis, Gabriel Phthalimide Synthesis, Suzuki Coupling, Heck Reaction, Sonogashira Coupling, Stille Coupling, Negishi Coupling, Kumada Coupling, Ullmann Coupling, Wurtz Reaction, Wurtz–Fittig Reaction, Finkelstein Reaction, Hunsdiecker Reaction, Gomberg–Bachmann Reaction, Buchwald–Hartwig Amination, Diels–Alder Reaction, Ene Reaction, Prilezhaev Epoxidation, Robinson Annulation, Nazarov Cyclization, Simmons–Smith Reaction, Eschweiler–Clarke Reaction, Birch Reduction, Mukaiyama Aldol Reaction, Tebbe Olefination, Nozaki–Hiyama–Kishi Reaction, Mitsunobu Reaction , along with the fundamental concepts of Carbanions, Enolization and Enolate Chemistry.

Studying these reactions with their mechanisms, stereochemistry, reagents, intermediates and synthetic applications is sufficient for almost all questions asked in CSIR NET, GATE, IIT JAM, SET and MSc Entrance examinations.
