Abstract

One of the major difficulties that students might find when trying to Ace an Organic Chemistry course is the need of memorizing a lot of information. This practice is very time consuming and sometimes the memorized material is lost during the next few days after the exam. In this matter, the use of mnemonic strategies has proven to be effective in long-term memorization, so in this article we present a couple of catchy phrases and introduce the use of the Aldoses’ Triangle as learning aids while dealing with the C5 and C6 aldoses.
