CHM 202 - Organic Chemistry 2


Credits: 4
3 Lecture Hours 4 Lab Hours

Prerequisites: CHM 201  or permission of instructor

 
Description
This course covers the chemistry of the organic compounds of carbon. This includes the bonding, structure (including stereochemistry), nomenclature, physical properties, reactions and reaction mechanisms. The dienes, aromatics, acids, acid derivatives, aldehydes, ketones, amines, carbohydrate, lipids and amino acids functional groups are studied in detail. Laboratory is an introduction to identification of organic compounds by spectroscopic and NMR data, and synthesis of organic compounds.


Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will:

  1. Given a structure, give the name; or given the name, draw the structure for a given compound.
  2. Classify organic compounds by functional group, and structure. (dienes, aromatic, carboxylic acids, acid derivatives, aldehydes, ketones, amines, carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids ).
  3. Illustrate and/or discuss the relationship of physical properties of a compound to its structure.
  4. List and recognize the common reaction intermediates involve in the mechanisms of organic chemistry (Electrophlic addition, substitution reaction of carbonyl compounds, condensation reactions etc.).
  5. Write, complete and use the common reactions for the aliphatic hydrocarbons, (dienes, aromatic, carboxylic acids, acid derivatives, aldehydes, ketones, amines, carbohydrates, lipids and amino acids ).
  6. Use the physical properties, UV, IR, Mass spectral data, NMR data to determine the identity or structure of a compound.
  7. Synthesize organic compounds by applying your knowledge of common organic reactions (on paper or in laboratory).
