À propos de ce cours

Overview: CHEM 350: Organic Chemistry 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 350 and its companion course, CHEM 360, represent a full-year introductory organic chemistry course at the second-year university level. The compulsory laboratory component of CHEM 350 introduces the basic techniques employed in modern organic chemistry laboratories. Experiments have been selected to illustrate many of the principles encountered in the theoretical part of the course. Outline: CHEM 350 comprises 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…

Préalables : CHEM 217 and CHEM 218 . This course 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. Concurrent registration in CHEM 218 and CHEM…
