This survey of organic chemistry may be of interest to students concentrating in life sciences. It will examine on structure, properties, and reactions of the main classes of organic compounds: alkanes and cycloalkanes; alkenes and alkynes; aromatic compounds (benzene and its derivatives); alcohols, ethers, and thiols; amines; aldehydes and ketones; carboxylic acids, anhydrides, esters, and amines; and stereochemistry of organic molecules. Students will be introduced to functional group chemistry, reaction mechanisms, the relationship between molecular structure and reactivity, and to main spectroscopic techniques used for molecular structure elucidation. Numerous examples will illustrate the biological and medical applications of organic chemistry. Notes: This study might be of interest to students with concentrations in life sciences. Students pursuing concentration in chemistry are to take Organic Chemistry I with Lab (CHEM 3210) or Organic Chemistry I (CHEM 3220), and Organic Chemistry II (CHEM 3221). Prerequisites: Chemistry I with Lab (CHEM 1205) and Chemistry II with Lab (CHEM 1206) or equivalents.
