CHM 2120 - Organic Chemistry I |
This course will provide an in-depth look at organic chemistry principles including reactions and mechanisms, and general aspects of structure, bonding and nomenclature. Stresses the correlation of structure to physical properties and chemical reactivity. Topics include structure and bonding of organic molecules, acid-base properties, functional group classifications, structure and properties of alkanes, physical organic chemistry, stereochemistry and chirality and the properties, synthesis and reactions of alkyl halides, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, epoxides and ethers. Prerequisite: CHM 1132 General Chemistry II.
