  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is an introduction to the chemistry of carbon compounds and of structural organic chemistry, including nomenclature and fundamental theoretical concepts . The mechanisms of addition, substitution and elimination reactions of aliphatic compounds are discussed. An important underlying theme is the relationship of molecular structure to the reactivity of organiccompounds. An introduction to the use of spectroscopy to determine molecular structure is also included. (Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory). Prerequisite: Chemistry 101 & 102
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is a continuation of Chemistry 201. Mechanisms of aromatic electrophilic substitution reactions of benzene and its derivatives and of nucleophilic addition reactions of carbonyl compounds are discussed. Reactions of carbonyl compounds and carboxylic acid and their derivatives are presented. Name reactions such as Friedel-Crafts alkylation and acylation, Witting, Hell-Volhard- Zelinski, and Michael reactions and Claisen condensation are discussed. The importance of the relationship of structure to reaction mechanism is presented in terms of concepts such as electron delocalization, acidity-basicity, nucleophilicity, aromaticity and oxidation-reduction. Students are encouraged to compare and contrast many aspects of these reactions and their mechanisms. (Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory) Prerequisites: Chemistry 101 and 102, Chemistry 201.
