Lecture 34 - Sharpless Oxidation Catalysts and the Conformation of Cycloalkanes

This video was recorded at CHEM 125 - Freshman Organic Chemistry. Professor Barry Sharpless of Scripps describes the Nobel-prizewinning development of titanium-based catalysts for stereoselective oxidation, the mechanism of their reactions, and their use in preparing esomeprazole. Conformational energy of cyclic alkanes illustrates the use of molecular mechanics. Problem sets/Reading assignment: Reading assignments, problem sets, PowerPoint presentations, and other resources for this lecture can be accessed from Professor McBride's on-campus course website, which was developed for his Fall 2008 students. Please see Resources section below. Resources: Professor McBride's web resources for CHEM 125 (Fall 2008)
