COURSE DESCRIPTION
Subjects covered include reactions of carbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids and their derivatives
and amine chemistry, synthetic procedures, and methods for differentiation and identification.
Mechanisms of reactions, stereochemistry and spectroscopy are emphasized.
COURSE/DEPARTMENTAL OBJECTIVES
The intention is:
· To stress the understanding of the course material rather than the memorization of facts.
· To instill the students with the ability to predict the detail and outcome of reactivity,
behavior, and mechanism or organic reactions and synthesis of organic compounds based
upon the understanding of the structural features of molecules.
· To acquaint the student with the basic instruments and lab techniques, to be able to work
independently.
· To serve as a prerequisite for chemistry and biology majors as well as for students
preparing for careers in medicine, dentistry and related health sciences.
COURSE/INSTITUTIONAL OBJECTIVES
This course is intended to prepare students to be able to enter the professional health sciences
schools, including medical and dental schools.
