Learn the basics about the principle of green chemistry that considers reducing derivatives, as a part of environmental chemistry.
Functional groups are the sites in a molecule where a reaction occurs. Some molecules may have more than one functional group which may be a problem if you’re carrying out a reaction, but you only want the reaction to occur at one particular functional group.
To prevent the other functional groups from reacting, we must “protect” them. To do so, we must add a protecting group, or a derivative. These groups are also called blocking groups.
This can be an issue because it costs time and energy to add and remove these protecting groups.
Chemists, in an effort to be more environmentally friendly, are developing chemoselective methods and syntheses - this means that the reaction will happen only at a particular functional group.

Let’s discover some more circle theorems so that we can solve all types of geometrical puzzles.
We discovered these 4 theorems in part 1:
Angle at the centre is double the angle at the circumference
The angle in a semi-circle is 90 degrees
Angles in the same segment are equal / Angles subtended by

If we don't have the vertical height of a triangle, then we can find the area of the triangle using 1/2absinC.
In this video we are going to discover where this formula comes from. The formula is based on area = 1/2 base X height and a
