Online course on drawing the structure given the IUPAC names

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding resources and tools for drawing the structures of organic molecules based on their IUPAC names. It includes inquiries about online aids and software recommendations.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant asks for websites or resources to help draw organic molecule structures from IUPAC names.
  • Another participant suggests searching for "organic chemistry" nomenclature or structure on Google and provides a specific link to a chemistry course resource.
  • A participant mentions that software like ChemDraw or ISIS Draw can automatically generate structures from names.
  • A follow-up question seeks clarification on what ChemDraw or ISIS Draw are.
  • One participant explains that these programs are widely used in chemistry departments for drawing chemical structures.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the utility of software tools for drawing chemical structures, but there is no consensus on specific online resources beyond the suggestions made.

Does anyone know a good website that gives info on drawing the structure of organinc molecules? Or can anyone teach me?
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
Search for "organic chemistry" nomeclature or stucture on www.google.com.

I'm not familiar with too many online aids, but try http://www.chem.ucalgary.ca/courses/351/Carey5th/nomenclature/index.html

If you have access to chem draw or isis draw, you can just put the names in and it will draw it for you.

Whats chem draw or isis draw?
 
Its the program everyone uses to draw chemical structures. Pretty much 99.9% of all chemistry departments at schools are bound to have at least one of those programs.
