-
3.00 Credits
Basic concepts necessary for understanding chemical reactions. Nomenclature, structure, physical properties and spectroscopy of simple organic molecules. Fundamentals of thermodynamics and reaction kinetics. Laboratory included. Prerequisite: Chemistry 108. (Meets the Critical Perspectives: Scientific Investigation of the Natural World requirement.) 1 unit - Grover, Hagedorn, Jones, Pongdee.
-
3.00 Credits
Characteristic reactions of common organic functional groups. Mechanisms, rates and equilibria. The course depends heavily on concepts developed in 250. Laboratory included. Prerequisite: Chemistry 250. (Meets the Critical Perspectives: Scientific Investigation of the Natural World requirement.) 1 unit - Hagedorn, Jones, Pongdee, Poniatowska.
-
1.50 Credits
Selected by the student with the advice of the instructor. Class and laboratory arranged. No more than six of these courses, i.e., 1.5 units, can be counted toward graduation. Only a total of three units of Investigations in Chemistry and Special Topics in Chemistry combined can be counted toward graduation. Prerequisite: Consent of instructor. .25 unit.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides opportunity for topical work. Topics will vary from year to year. No more than three units of Investigations, Topics, and Advanced Topics may be taken for department credit. (Not offered 2008-09.) 1 unit.
-
1.00 Credits
Independent experimental practice research in areas such as biochemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, catalysis, analytical chemistry and environmental chemistry performed in affiliation with a staff member. A total of three units of Investigations may be taken for credit. 1 unit - Brasuel.
-
3.00 Credits
Independent experimental practice research in areas such as biochemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, catalysis, analytical chemistry and environmental chemistry performed in affiliation with a staff member. A total of three units of Investigations may be taken for credit. Extended format course. .5 unit.
-
3.00 Credits
The principles and theory of modern instrumental analysis taught through topics selected from electrochemistry, spectroscopy and chromatography. The design and analysis of optimized experiments will be illustrated through research-oriented topics that also teach the instrumental methods being emphasized. Prerequisite: Chemistry 241 or Chemistry 345 and Physics 242 (CH365, CH366, or consent of instructor. 1 unit - Brasuel.
-
3.00 Credits
Analysis of biomolecules using chemical and biological techniques. Emphasis will be placed on protein and DNA structure, chromatographic and electrophoretic separations and methods of quantitation. Course format includes laboratories, special projects and discussions of current literature and reviews. Prerequisite: Chemistry 382. 1 unit - Drossman.
-
3.00 Credits
Application of structural concepts and functional group reactions to the synthesis of organic compounds. Factors in the design of multistep syntheses such as functional group transformation, elaboration of carbon chains, protecting groups and reaction stereochemistry. Examples from the literature of laboratory syntheses of complex molecules such as steroids, alkaloids and pharmaceuticals will be examined. Laboratory included. Prerequisite: Chemistry 251. 1 unit - Pongdee.
-
2.00 Credits
Application of thermodynamics and kinetics to the study of organic reaction mechanisms. Elucidation of mechanisms via the use of molecular orbital theory, isotope effects, substituent effects and linear free-energy relationships, solvent effects, characterization of reactive intermediates, gas-phase chemistry and computations. Laboratory included. (Either 351 or 352 will count as the advanced organic chemistry requirement for the chemistry major, or as an elective for the biochemistry major. The two courses, however, are not the same and both can be applied toward graduation requirements.) Prerequisite: Chemistry 250, 251 and 366. (Not offered 2008-09.) 1 unit.
