All about IIT JEE Organic Chemistry

When it comes to preparing for IIT JEE, one of the most difficult subjects is Chemistry. Indeed, as opposed to Mathematics or Physics, students find it quite challenging to master Chemistry. Chemistry requires a lot of formula remembering and this is where students have a difficult time.

• Topics in JEE Organic Chemistry :

If you wish to score well in Organic Chemistry, you need to first get a good grip on the introductory chapters like Inductive and resonance effects and Stability of carbocations and others. These initial chapters find several applications in the further chapters. To master Organic Chemistry, you need to master your memory skills since you have to remember reactions and also develop a deep understanding of these reactions. When you are preparing for organic chemistry, ensure that you know all key reactions as well as their mechanisms. You should also well understand what are the effects cast by external factors on a specific reaction, if applicable.

Nomenclature of Organic Compounds	Phenols
General Organic Chemistry – 1	Carboxylic Acids
General Organic Chemistry – 2	Acid Anhydride
Alkane	Amines
Alkene	Test for Functional Groups
Alkyne	Biomolecules
Haloarenes and Haloakenes	Polymers
Alcohols	Chemistry in Everyday life

•   Few Books for JEE Organic Chemistry :

The Organic Chemistry book by O.P Tandon is great for IIT JEE aspirants. This book has been penned with an objective to cater to the interests and needs of students who look to gain admission for any professional course, particularly engineering or medical.

The Arihant Organic Chemistry Objective is another excellent book to learn Organic Chemistry. NCERT Theory suffices for Inorganic and organic chemistry but to ensure you are going that extra mile in terms of practice, you can refer to this Arihant publication book. Most of Arihant publication books are re-published every year according to the current JEE pattern.

The Organic Chemistry book by Paula Bruice Yurkanis is also a reliable book to study. This book is popular  among students who are appearing for IIT JEE and other competitive exams .

The Organic Chemistry book by Solomons is also referred by majority of students. Without any doubt, this is one of the most critical books to study organic chemistry when you are preparing for IIT JEE. Each and every organic chemistry topic has been handled in an easy-to-understand and simple manner that it easily beats all other books on Organic Chemistry books.

Organic Chemistry by IL Finar is also an excellent book to refer to. Some of the topics covered in Volume I are-

• Determination of Structure
• Properties of Molecules
• Alkanes
• Halogen derivatives of the alkanes
• Monohydric alcohols
• Ethers
• Aldehydes and Ketones

• Why are JEE Organic Chemistry Tests / Quizzes Important :

When you are preparing for IIT JEE, Organic Chemistry is easily one of the most time-consuming and difficult subjects to study. However, with quizzes and tests, you can memorize the reactions  in a fun way and it also helps in saving a lot of time. These quizzes are designed to help the students in reviewing the basic reactions. Most of these organic chemistry quizzes are formed to help develop a strong and solid base in Organic Chemistry. Also, students can also use Flash Cards for Organic Chemistry quizzes to help them in remembering these reactions.
