Protecting Groups, C-C Coupling, and Metathesis in Organic Chemistry, Exams of Organic Chemistry

This module bank for students covers key concepts in advanced organic chemistry, including protecting group strategies, c-c coupling reactions, and metathesis reactions. It presents a series of exercises and questions designed to test students' understanding of these topics. The module includes detailed explanations of various protecting groups, their applications, and the mechanisms of different c-c coupling reactions, such as kumada, negishi, stille, suzuki-miyura, sonogashira, mizoroki-heck, and buchwald-hartwig. It also explores the principles of metathesis reactions, including ring-closing metathesis (rcm), ring-opening metathesis polymerization (romp), and acyclic diene metathesis (admet).
