CHM-243 Organic Chemistry II


Credits: 5
Contact Hours: Lec 4 Lab 3
Tier Rate: Tier I
This course will further develop knowledge of organic chemistry with a greater emphasis on functional group reactivity, mechanisms, and multistep synthetic sequences. The topics include: aromatic compounds, including phenols and aryl halides as well as a thorough discussion of delocalized chemical bonding; aldehydes and ketones; amines; carboxylic acids and their derivatives. There will be enhanced requirements for naming compounds, elucidating structures via spectroscopy and actual synthesis in the lab. Prerequisite(s): Grade of “C” or better in CHM 242
