Glycidyl methacrylate molecular model (C7H10O3, CAS 106-91-2): a free, print-ready ball-and-stick model with the element symbol engraved on every atom, designed for chemistry lessons.
In Glycidyl methacrylate the ring system sets the overall shape: one 3-membered ring. Altogether 20 bonds hold the model together (18 single and 2 double). Hand the model round and let students tally the engraved atoms: 7 C + 10 H + 3 O, 20 in total. Glycidyl methacrylate has one stereocentre, and this record does not specify its configuration (R or S), which makes the model a natural way into a lesson on enantiomers. Plan it into a unit on chirality, enantiomers and CIP (R/S) rules, on the carbonyl group (C=O), as well as on ring strain in three-membered rings. Functional groups to find on the model: ester group (-COO-), epoxide ring (three-membered C-O-C ring) and carbon-carbon double bond (C=C).
Printing: the STL is in angstrom units - scale it 10x in the slicer (1 angstrom = 10 mm). Use supports under the bonds; PLA works well.
