Hello,

Below are the minutes from the meeting of the organic subgroup. Thank 
you, Stefan, for taking minutes and for agreeing (reluctantly or not) to 
chair the subcommittee.

The dates for the next three subcommittee meetings are June 2, July 7, 
and August 4 at noon eastern. The next meeting of the full group will be 
September 1 at noon eastern; at which time the subcommittee will report 
back on progress. In the meantime, if anyone has something that they 
would like the entire group to discuss, please let me know. Thank you.

All the best,

Greg

[11:10] <kilyanek> The chair of the committee position has been tabled
[11:11] <kilyanek> definition of goals and things we want to accomplish
[11:11] <kilyanek> goals "generate a set of rules to describe organic 
reactions"
[11:12] <kilyanek> "from simple reactions to the most complex"
[11:12] <kilyanek> Kumar : is this for alt text or for other sources
[11:13] <kilyanek> greg : a system of rules for any type of description 
no matter if it is alt text or not
[11:22] <kilyanek> space filling models and images and descriptions are 
discussed
[11:24] <kilyanek> should we define rules for space filling models and 
ball and stick?
[11:24] <kilyanek> kilyanek : argues against getting bogged down


Course grained objectives for organic drawing descriptions
I.
¬General structure description
     Simple molecules sp3
     Aromatics
Functional groups

What follows is the order of a typical Organic textbook / ACS curriculum
FROM WADE organic chemistry ed. 3
II.
Structure of alkanes
Generic structure including hybridization and shape
Cycloalkanes
Cis-trans isomerism
III.
Generic functional groups
Alkenes and alkynes
Aromatics
IV.
Chirality
R S problem here?
Diastereomers
V.
Alkyl halides
SN1 sN2
Unsaturated reactions
VI.
Electrophile reactions / aromatic reactions
VII.
Carbohydrates
"steroids" / complicated bio-relevant reactions

Check every roman numeral against DA, EAS and E1 reaction

Kilyanek reluctantly volunteers for chair

Discussion of a shared dropbox folder ensued
June 2,  July 7, August 4 as working meetings on roman number I. 
September 1 to report progress on Roman numeral I. all meetings at noon
