Practice Problem: Hydrogenation, Isomerism, and Cyclohexane Chairs
For this one we need to understand the stereospecificity of hydrogenation over platinum metal, stereochemical relationships, and the relative stability of cyclohexane chair conformations.

Stereochemistry: Enantiomers
Defining stereochemistry and enantiomeric relationships.
Berkeley University of California
Isomers: Stereo (Chiral)
In the 50s and 60s, pregnant women were prescribed Thalidomide, a stereoisomer that prevented morning sickness but caused severe birth defects. The instructor in the videos explain stereoisomers, enantiomers, and chirality using...

Isomers
Why did the two dipoles start going out? Because they had a moment. The video briefly explains isomers and the difference between structural isomers and stereo isomers before diving into the importance of defining dipole...

Cahn-Ingold-Prelog System for Naming Enantiomers, Organic Chemistry
1-bromo-1-fluoroethane is the first example of stereoisomers that exhibit different chemical properties and polarize light in distinct ways. An informative video focuses on how to differentiate between enantiomers using the...

Chiral Examples 1, Stereochemistry, Organic Chemistry
Sal's video is a selection of structure diagramming examples. Sal draws each out and demonstrates whether each is chiral or not. The video also presents a large number of relevant terms and reviews the nomenclature of conformations.

Khan Academy: Diastereomers and Meso Compounds: Stereoisomers, Enantiomers,
This video looks at pairs of molecules to see if they relate to each other in obvious or less than obvious ways, for example, by having the same molecular formula but different structures. The video looks at stereoisomers, enantiomers,...
