CHEM& 242 - Organic Chemistry II



4.0 Credits
Continuation of CHEM& 241 (was CHEM 231). Structure, nomenclature, reactions, and properties of organic molecules, especially aromatics and carbonyl compounds. Laboratory includes preparation of organic compounds and instrumental analysis (was CHEM 232). Prerequisite: CHEM& 241  (was CHEM 231) with a grade of 2.0 or higher.

Course Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

  1. Explain spectroscopy techniques including NMR, IR, and MS and interpret spectra obtained from these techniques. [REASON]
  2. Apply the electron pushing mechanism to substitution and elimination reactions. [REASON]
  3. Predict the outcome of substitution and elimination reactions. [REASON]
  4. Explain aromaticity and antiaromaticity in relation to organic compounds. [REASON]
  5. Apply the electron pushing mechanism to electrophilic aromatic substation reactions. [REASON]
  6. Predict the outcome of to electrophilic aromatic substation reactions. [REASON]
