CHMB42H3

Organic Chemistry II

This course builds on the topics seen in Organic Chemistry I. Major reactions include electrophilic and nucleophilic aromatic substitutions, and the chemistry of carbonyl compounds. Spectroscopic methods for structure determination are explored (NMR, MS, IR), along with the chemistry of biologically important molecules such as heterocycles and carbohydrates. This course includes a four-hour laboratory every other week, as well as weekly one-hour tutorials.
