Be a 'chemical detective' and solve the molecular structure of organic molecules

Features & Capabilities

Chemical Detectives is an interactive Chrome extension where users become 'chemical detectives' to determine the molecular structure of organic molecules. Using experimental data from techniques like microanalysis, mass spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, users piece together clues to solve molecular puzzles.

Beyond structure determination, the extension emphasizes mastery of organic chemistry nomenclature by guiding users through naming solved molecules. Players can challenge classmates, friends, or even teachers in timed duels that range from multiple-choice to full text-entry naming challenges, enhancing both analytical and naming skills. A perfect educational tool combining problem-solving, interactive learning, and competitive fun for chemistry students.
