CHM 221 ,222 - Organic Chemistry

Institution:

Wesleyan College

Subject:

Description:

Goal To examine the structure and the physical and chemical properties of hydrocarbon compounds and their derivatives. To apply the mechanistic approach to understanding the basic nature of organic reactions. To encourage critical thinking, logical derivation, and creativity, using organic synthesis as a vehicle. To apply laboratory techniques used in determining structures of organic molecules. Content An introduction to the chemistry of carbon compounds including their structures, physical and spectral properties, chemical reactivity, and synthesis. Laboratory work includes the isolation, purification, and identification used in determination of structures of organic molecules, as well as determination of physical and spectral properties.
