Description

This advanced/intermediate-level course completes the American Chemical Society's expectations for the organic chemistry portion of an ACS-certified chemistry degree. The course builds upon the foundational material and skills from the organic chemistry principles course by focusing on examples of molecular structures, analytical methods, and reactions that are more complex and more powerful than those seen before. Students will be challenged to incorporate together a large amount of organic chemistry material (from both courses) and to use that material to synthesize solutions to complex problems. The course includes a weekly lab period. Prerequisites: CHEM 131 with C- minimum grade.
