CHE 2218 - Organic Chemistry II

Credits: 4
A systematic study of the compounds of carbon based upon functional reactivity with emphasis on the physicochemical approach to reaction mechanisms. With continued emphasis upon mechanisms, the chemistry of alcohols, ethers, phenols, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines, carbohydrates, and amino acids is studied. A coordinated laboratory incorporates NMR spectroscopy, molecular modeling, micro and macro scale synthesis, and scientific writing. Course includes a 4-hr laboratory.
