2.2 Drawing Line Angle Structures (aka Bond Line Structures) | Organic Chemistry

Chad teaches how to draw Line Angle structures (aka Bond Line structures) in this lesson, one of a few ways we draw organic compounds. He begins by teaching students how to recognize where the carbon and hydrogen atoms are that are implied by the structure. He shows how to convert line angle structures to Lewis structures but then shows how condensed structures, Lewis structures, and line angle structures can all be converted between each other. Chad concludes the lesson with a few examples of bond line structures that include atoms having formal charges or radicals. So if you're looking to get in some practice with bond line structures questions for your organic chemistry course, this is a good place to start!

You are an amazing Chemistry Professor. I've gotten A's in all my Chemistry courses because of you. Now I'm in O.Chem and you are right here with me again lol

[@ChadsPrep]

Excellent! Happy Studying!

[@Muxe668]

i am a slow leaner when it comes to chemistry, am glad i found this organic chemistry playlist. Thank you so much.

[@ChadsPrep]

Slow and steady wins the race!

[@ej-xy6dw]

so excited for this new playlist!!!

[@ChadsPrep]

Me too Eman!!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one!😜

[@TheArtsyCrafty]

Thank you so much! I'm so grateful for these videos, they're a lifesaver!

[@ChadsPrep]

Glad you like them, Bunny, and that they are helpful!

[@frobelmatevosyan5212]

Simply a lifesaver, thankful for everything that you are doing!!!

[@ChadsPrep]

You're very welcome Frobel and thanks for the feedback! Happy Studying!

[@hodam7127]

I would love practice questions! And exam study guides I’m going to check out your site ! And thanks for uploading - first video that made me hopeful I can learn this stuff minus the headache

[@ChadsPrep]

Glad to hear it, Hoda M - the videos are only the beginning!

[@mishellcarolene6885]

Hi Chad! Your videos are very very very helpful! Thank you so much !

[@ChadsPrep]

Hello, Mishell Carolene - glad to hear it!

[@abdoulazizdabo9064]

Thank you so much professor. Excellent materials

[@ChadsPrep]

You're welcome and Thank you.

[@Kirtan200]

you are saving lives!!

[@ChadsPrep]

Life preservers for all who need them!

[@kimberlyfayecabaeros5404]

Thank you so much. I'm having a hard time right now at our organic chem. This is a live saver!!

[@ChadsPrep]

Glad the channel/videos are helping!

[@kimberlyfayecabaeros5404]

@@ChadsPrep I still have a question tho, what to do if the condensed structure just has a close parenthesis and a subscript, and no open parenthesis?

[@QuicksilverBL3DE]

Nice!

[@ChadsPrep]

Thx!

[@LearnerInterest]

Thank you, Sir ❤

[@ChadsPrep]

Very welcome!

[@hmikeshin]

THANK YOU!!! :)))))

[@ChadsPrep]

You're very welcome!😊

[@henrynwosu1]

Thanks so much

[@ChadsPrep]

You are welcome!

Hey Chad, I'm preparing for my semester ahead of OChem and I was just curious because I don't think I caught it in your lecture video. Does it matter which side you draw the line for a double bond in the bond-line structure (for the carbon chain)

[@sanjanaj5055]

hi does it matter where we draw our double bond on the carbon chain? (as on top or bottom)
And if it does, how do we determine where it goes?

[@jakefrei917]

Thanks bro

[@ChadsPrep]

You're welcome, Jake.

[@adonislanzones]

Why are you such A G.O.A.T

[@ChadsPrep]

Glad the channel is helping you.

[@ruthregassa5701]

Thank you for your videos!
Also, I like the pun in your shirt, where did you get it?

[@ChadsPrep]

You're welcome Ruth and I'm glad you like the pun (many won't get it)! It was a gift from my wife...but no idea where she got it. But I'll ask.😊

[@ayanabdirizak9287]

Youre the best

[@ChadsPrep]

Thank you

[@corymettling300]

Hey Chad!
Where do I buy some of the shirts you wear?

[@ChadsPrep]

Not sure, Cory - most of my shirts are gifts through the years from many different people. You could probably search online.

[@chemmajor1188]

If one bond is made of two electrons, then why can't the lone electron from a radical and the lone electron from a hydrogen atom create a chemical bond?

[@ChadsPrep]

It certainly could, but remember that hydrogen exists in nature as H2, so in order for this to happen we would need a hydrogen radical rather than H2
