Chemistry being one of the high scoring and difficult subject for many students, it is very much essential to focus on some of the smart ways to ace the subject. Organic chemistry is one of the major parts of the chemistry and most of the questions are from this part only. Here we are presenting you some of the very important tips and tricks to master the Organic Chemistry for CBSE Class 12 board exam.
Let’s first get through the syllabus and portion for CBSE class 12 Organic Chemistry

NCERT book for class 12 Chemistry
Central Atom or Ion - The ion or atom with which a fixed number of ions or groups are bound in a proper geometrical arrangement in a coordination entity around it
Ligands - Ions or molecules bound to the central metal atom or ion in a coordination entity
Coordination Sphere- The central atom or ion and the ligands attached to it are enclosed in square brackets, are collectively called coordination spheres.
Coordination Number- Number of ligand-donor atoms that are bonded directly to the metal
Coordination Polyhedron- The ligand atoms arrangement in spatial form which are directly attached with central atom or ion
Oxidation Number of Central Atom- The charge an atom can carry if all the ligands are removed along with the electron pairs that are shared with the central atom
Coordination Compounds − Complex compounds in which the transition metal atoms are bound to a number of anions or neutral molecules
IUPAC Nomenclature questions: As per the last year question papers of Chemistry CBSE class 12 the portion of organic chemistry had its major part from the tables of common and IUPAC names as given in the NCERT book. It is always advised to go thoroughly through it to have a clear basic idea of the subject core.
Distinction test: The distinction test are commonly asked in between the aromatic and aliphatic compounds, compounds with two different functional groups, compounds with same functional group but with different atoms arrangement
Always check the marks for the questions, if the question carries one mark, it is required to show only one test.
Make sure you prepare the structural formulae of the compounds that can be used here.
Memorize the reactions of the substances and the difference of the structures as well.
Apply the reactions by keeping the skeletal structure in mind and its difference
Name reactions: List down the important name reactions which have been asked in the past year question papers. Some of the important ones which have been asked repeatedly are: Williamson synthesis, Aldol Condensation, Coupling reaction, Sandmeyer reaction, Kolbe’s reaction, Hoffmann Bromamide, Cannizzaro Reaction, Clemmensen Reduction reaction etc.
Conversions: Questions on conversions are always important and are the most expected ones. There are several ways to solve these sorts of questions but you need to know the most feasible and the shortest way of solving it. You must also know that CBSE board has never asked to mention the conversions having more than 3-steps.
Practice the questions related to conversion and while preparing write down the starting compound and final compound can make your process of solving the question very easy.
Note down the structural differences as it mostly differs in the functional groups, carbon atoms or may be both
Memorize the reactions properly as these can be used to solve these Conversion questions
