CHEM 2100 - Organic Chemistry II

4 cr. 6 hr. Day course offered in the Spring and Summer

This course is a continuation of CHEM 2000. In this course, chemistry of aromatic compounds, unsaturated hydrocarbons and enols and enolates are covered in detail. Reactions such as elimination, electrophilic addition, electrophilic substitution, nucleophilic addition and condensation are discussed in detail with special emphasis on reaction mechanisms and stereochemical outcomes. The theories behind analytical methods such as IR, NMR spectroscopy and Mass spectrometry are discussed along with their application in structural elucidation of organic compounds. AIA

Prerequisite(s): A grade of at least 1.7 in CHEM 2000 .
