CHM - 273 Organic Chemistry II

(5 s.h.)

Prerequisite: CHM - 263 Organic Chemistry I.
Introduction to electron delocalization and its effect of the stability and reactivity of organic compounds. Substitution and elimination reaction mechanisms will be described and used to explain the chemistry of some important classes of organic compounds. Students will be introduced to the technique of molecular structure determination by the analysis of infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. Laboratory work includes synthesis of organic compounds and their analysis by infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography, and molecular modeling software programs.
