CHEM 2010 - Organic Chemistry I

3 credit(s)

Chemistry 2010 is an introductory sequence course in organic chemistry that considers the occurrences, structure, properties, and uses of the more important classes of organic compounds. Concepts such as mechanisms of reactions and the relationships between structure and properties are developed. Topics covered are: carbon compounds and chemical bonds; representative carbon compounds; alkanes and cycloalkanes and conformational analysis; stereochemistry: chiral molecules; ionic reactions: nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions of alkyl halides, alkenes and alkynes, alcohols and ethers, and free radical reactions.
