À propos de ce cours

Overview: Chemistry 305: Organic Chemistry Theory I deals with the chemistry of carbon compounds through a study of the characteristic reactions of the common functional groups. Particular emphasis is placed on the study of reaction mechanisms in an attempt to show similarities between apparently unrelated reactions. The importance of stereochemistry is stressed throughout the course. The course also includes an introduction to the use of spectroscopy in the analysis of organic compounds. CHEM 305 and its companion course, CHEM 306, represent a full-year introductory organic chemistry course at the second-year-university level. There is no laboratory component is this course. Outline: CHEM 305 is comprised of the following 16 units: - Unit 1 - Structure and Bonding - Unit 2 - Polar Covalent Bonds: Acids and Bases - Unit 3 - Organic Compounds: Alkanes and Their Stereochemistry - Unit 4 - Organic Compounds: Cycloalkanes and Their Stereochemistry - Unit 5 - Stereochemistry at Tetrahedral Centers - Unit 6 - An Overview of Organic Reactions - Unit 7 - Alkenes: Structure and Reactivity - Unit 8 - Alkenes: Reactions and Synthesis - Unit 9 - Alkynes: An Introduction to Organic Synthesis - Unit 10 - Organohalides - Unit 11 - Reactions of Alkyl Halides: Nucleophilic Substitutions and Eliminations - Unit 12 - Structure Determination: Mass Spectroscopy and Infrared Spectroscopy - Unit 13 - Structure Determination: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy - Unit 14 - Conjugated Compounds…

Préalables : CHEM 217 and CHEM 218 . CHEM 305 is open only to students with CHEM 217 and CHEM 218, or courses equivalent to a six-credit first-year-university general chemistry course. Students who do not have the formal prerequisites may take the course with the permission of the coordinator, if they are judged to have the necessary background and experience.
