Chirality A series of chiral and achiral objects, the interaction of polarized light with organic molecules, the assignment of R- and S- configuration, Fisher projections, and a stereospecific reaction are demonstrated.
The Meaning of MesoAddison Ault The original use of the prefix "meso" was to refer to an optically inactive, non-resolvable member of a set of stereoisomers, some of which were optically active. Ault, Addison. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 441.

A Knoevenagel Initiated Annulation Reaction Using Room Temperature or Microwave ConditionsA. Gilbert Cook The product of a Knoevenagel initiated annulation reaction is identified through a guided prelab exercise of the synthesis of the Hagemann ester, and then through the analysis of GCMS, NMR, and IR spectra. The stereochemistry of the product is determined through the NMR spectrum and Karplus curve, and the student is required to write a mechanism for the reaction. Cook, A. Gilbert. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 1477.
Stereochemistry TutorialNicola Burrmann Master the concepts organic stereochemistry with this interactive tutorial. It includes definitions, different three dimensional representations, assigning priorities to stereocenters, and determining the stereochemical relationship between molecules. Each section is followed by a question set that tests knowledge and understanding.

Mechanisms That Interchange Axial and Equatorial Atoms in Fluxional ProcessesMarion E. Cass, Henry S. Rzepa, King Kuok Hii The Berry pseudorotation is a classical mechanism for interchanging axial and equatorial ligands in molecules with trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Teaching this mechanism presents particular pedagogic problems due to both its dynamic and three dimensional character. The approach taken here illustrates these processes using interactive animations embedded in a Web page and overcomes many limitations of a printed page.

Mage; A Tool for Developing Interactive Instructional GraphicsStephen F. Pavkovic Mage is a graphics program especially well suited for visualizing three-dimensional structures of proteins and other macromolecules. It is an important tool for biochemists and finds many applications in biochemistry courses. We utilize Mage to create interactive instructional graphics of potential use in a wider range of undergraduate chemistry courses, and present some of those applications here.
