Build any alcohol chemical structure molecular model with the 68827W Advanced Organic Chemistry Molecular Model Set from Indigo® Instruments.

The 68827W Molecular Model Set includes enough carbon, hydrogen & divalent oxygen atoms to build multiple models of alcohols at the same time for side by side manipulation & comparison. Examples include: 2-methyl-1-propanol (primary); 2-methyl-2-pentanol; 2-methyl-2-propanol (tertiary); 2-methylbutan-2-ol; 3, 3, 3-dimethyl-2-butanol (secondary); 5-dimethylhexan-1-ol; 6, 6-methylheptan-3-ol; 8-dimethyl-3-decanol.

Need to build more complex alcohol structures? The Indigo® Instruments 3D Molecular Model Builder can show the structure & list any spare parts you might need to augment this set.

Why Buy the 68827W Molecular Model Set for Alcohols?

The 68827W molecular model set comes with 24 black sp3 atoms to represent carbon & 6 divalent red atoms to denote oxygen. It is by far the most versatile & cost effective student organic chemistry molecular model set for chemistry majors. Use it not only for organic chemistry but inorganic courses including point group & organometallic chemistry as well as VSEPR theory.

Why Is the 68827W Model Set Superior to Darling Molecular Visions?

Alcohols are classified based on which carbon atom is bonded to the hydroxyl group. If it is an chain end carbon then the compound is a primary alcohol. A secondary alcohol has the hydroxyl group joined to a carbon that is directly bonded to two carbon atoms on either side. Tertiary alcohols have hydroxyl groups where the attached carbon atom is bonded to three carbons.

Orbit style sp3 carbon & divalent oxygens atoms show bonding in alcohols more intuitively than Darling Molecular Vision Models. In addition, you can augment this model set with more atoms from our always in stock genuine Cochranes of Oxford Orbit Molecular Model Parts. You can build multiple models of even large alcohol structures with help from the Indigo® Instruments 3D Molecular Model Builder. It can show & rotate the structure of any compound & indicate any spare parts you might need.

Indigo Instruments has stocked genuine Cochranes of Oxford molecular model parts for 30+ years. Customize or replenish any model set/kit we have ever sold!

I like the compact size, but the clear bonds are extremely annoying and difficult to use at first. I had to warm them up with a hair dryer to make them more flexible and even after some use, it still takes effort to push the atoms in. There must be a better balance of durability and usability.

— EA
— Indigo: Unfortunately there is the trade off between stiffness & durability. We suggest putting them in your pocket for a while before initial use. This will soften them up & stretch the openings to make future use easier.

Good kit. Fast delivery. It made visualizing chair/boat conformations easier, helped figuring out chirality and stereochem as well. The clear bonds however were sometimes hard to work with as you really need to shove the parts into them, and can slow you down if you're able to use a model kit in exams. As a result, I like using the more rigid grey bonds for most of my builds. The bendable bonds are good if you need to visualize your alkenes and alkynes.

Thanks for the feedback. The rigid bonds are great for chair boat flips but eventually wear out with repeated use. The clear bonds are tougher to work with at first but eventually loosen up enough to make them easier to use. They will last over many more uses which is good if you are taking chemistry as a degree.
