Chemistry enhanced podcasts, Imperial College London.
Summary: Audio and video podcasts from undergraduate lecture courses given in the Chemistry Department. The audio materials are annotated as "enhanced" Podcasts with full lecture notes, handouts, and linked to rotatable/and or animated 3D models (of molecules, their vibrations, and their molecular orbitals. Requires Java) and to much original literature.

Podcasts:
The historical development of the discovery of aromatic molecules and their unique properties
Examples of an electrocyclic + cycloaddition pericyclic cascade, and examples of sigmatropic migrations.
Examples of cycloaddition reactions illustrating both supra and antarafacial modes and endo/exo isomerism.
Statement of the four main pericyclic selection rules in terms of transition state aromaticity. Examples of electrocyclic reactions.
Introduction to the theories of conservation of (molecular) orbital symmetry with orbital correlationi diagrams, and derivation of selection rules. Huckel and Mobius transition state aromaticities.
Pericyclic reactions, historical survey, definition and general properties, and examples of electrocyclic, cycloaddition, sigmatropic, ene and other types of pericyclic.
