This booklet contains a thorough worked example through the steps to determining the structure of an organic compound.

The steps included are :

  1. Elemental analysis (to determine empirical formula)
  2. Mass spec (to determine molecular formula)
  3. Calculating double bond equivalents (often overlooked at A-Level, but very useful).
  4. IR and chemical tests to determine functional groups present.
  5. NMR problem solving to determine overall structure.

The worked example is in table format, with a guide and model response. There are 5 practice problems with answers.

I have used it to teach AQA and OCR A, but it probably works with all exam boards.
