Organic Chemistry - Functional Group Conversions.

Worried that you are given a large molecule and you do not know how to handle the functional group conversions? Have no fear! The solution requires two main points:

1. Identifying the functional groups on the molecule. Be certain of the reactions that the functional group has.
2. Identify the types of reactions that the reagent can undergo.

Below is a video which highlights a phenyl molecule which contains phenol, primary alcohol, alkyl benzene and alkene as functional groups. This video will highlight how the above two points can be applied.
