Name ReactionsHandwritten Notes
Named organic reactions are guaranteed marks in JEE and NEET — every paper has at least 2-3 questions on Aldol, Cannizzaro, Wittig, Reimer-Tiemann, or similar. These handwritten notes by Paaras Sir compile the full set of named reactions with mechanism and product-prediction examples.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many named reactions are covered?+
Over 30 of the most exam-relevant named reactions — Aldol, Cannizzaro, Wittig, Reimer-Tiemann, Sandmeyer, Hofmann bromamide, Beckmann, and many more — each with mechanism and starting material → product example.
Are mechanisms drawn for each reaction?+
Yes — every name reaction is shown with the curved-arrow mechanism, intermediates, and key transition states. Pair with the Organic Wizard to test product prediction across this entire set.
Are these notes useful for JEE Advanced?+
Yes. JEE Advanced often combines two named reactions in a single multi-step synthesis problem — knowing each one cold is the only way to chain them under exam pressure.
