IV.COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This course is designed to give the student extensive background in bonding, nomenclature, and reactions of organometallics, alcohols, diols, ethers, epoxides, aldehydes and ketones. Reactions of these types of compounds or leading to their formation will be covered, including electrophilic aromatic substitutions and nucleophilic additions to the carbonyl group to enolates and organometallics. Spectroscopy of organic compounds will be introduced.

A course designed to give the student extensive background in bonding, nomenclature, and reactions of carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines, aryl halides and phenols. Reactions of these types of compounds or leading to their formation will be covered. Basis biomolecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, and proteins and nucleic acids will be introduced with an emphasis on their basic primary, secondary and tertiary structures, as appropriate, and certain simple properties and reactions from an organic chemical perspective.
