Description
PREREQUISITE: C or better in SCI-124
This course studies the chemistry of carbon compounds including nomenclature, molecular structure, and functional groups. Topics include the reactivity and properties of saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons, stereochemical relationships and nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions. Mechanisms are presented as a unifying principle for these reactions.
Laboratory work will develop basic skills and techniques, and be correlated with class discussion. Lab sessions will be hands on experiences revolving around and applying the topics listed in the lab section of the syllabus.
