CHEM - 405. Advanced Topics in Organic Chemistry


1-3 credit(s)
This lecture course will build on the material covered in CHEM 210 /CHEM 220 , and will cover in more detail the structural and physical properties of organic molecules and the reactions they undergo. Advanced chemical reactions will be covered, including complex skeletal rearrangements, multicomponent reactions, and the impacts of neighboring group participation. This advanced vocabulary of organic reactions will be used to learn the strategies behind the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Concepts of physical organic chemistry, such as reaction kinetics, isotope effects, linear free energy relationships and reaction mechanism determination will be covered. Structural determination using 1- and 2-D NMR, MS and other techniques will be discussed.

Prerequisite(s): CHEM 220  or permission of instructor.
Attribute: (ATTR: ARTS).
