Description:

Lecture 3 hours; 3 credits. Prerequisite: CHEM 105N with a grade of C or better. Corequisite: CHEM 108N. This course is the second part of a two-semester sequence of chemistry covering topics in general, organic, and biological chemistry. In this part, an introduction to organic compounds and their role in biological systems is provided. The topics to be covered include the structure, nomenclature, and reactivity of organic compounds, the structure and function of important biomolecules, and the chemistry of metabolic pathways. This course does not meet the prerequisite for CHEM 211, and cannot be used toward the CHEM major or minor. Students wishing to pursue advanced study in chemistry should take CHEM 121N, 122N, 123N, and 124N. CHEM 107N + CHEM 108N satisfy four credits of the University's Nature of Science general education requirement.
