Organic Chemistry 2
I'm taking organic chemistry 2 this semester, and I'm having a ton of anxiety because I really struggled in organic 1. I took the class 5 times total (I had a lot of personal struggles at the time as well), and just passed this summer with a B-. I felt like I had a really good grasp at the first half, but when it came to reactions I felt completely lost--especially with synthesis and retrosynthesis reactions. I felt like I knew reactions independently, their features, and could perform them if I was told what reaction it was, but as soon as I was forced to choose how to make something I felt like everything I understood was gone.
From my understanding ochem 2 is just going to be reactions, and they get increasingly complex. What do I do? Are there any resources that were very helpful, and what concepts should I try to understand before walking in?
