CHEM2062 — Organic Chemistry II
CHEM 2062 - Organic Chemistry II CHEM 2062 - Organic Chemistry II 5 Credits Is a continuation of CHEM 2061 that includes the study of IR and NMR spectroscopy, the chemistry of alkenes, alkynes, aromatic compounds, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, conjugate addition reactions, enolates and carbanions, amines and an introduction to some biochemical organic compounds. The lab component of the course provides the student experience with obtaining and interpreting IR spectra for reactants and products in organic reactions, synthesis and isolation products from reaction mixtures, identification methods for selected families of organic compounds and analytic techniques used in the identification of organic compounds. Synthesis and reactions of alkenes and alkynes. Aromaticity, reactions of benzene and benzene derivatives. Synthesis using substituted benzene compounds. Nomenclature, synthesis and reactions of aldehydes and ketones. Nomenclature, synthesis and reactions of carboxylic acids and derivatives of carboxylic acid. Chemistry of conjugated pi bonds and its use in cyclization through the Diels-Alder reaction. Enolates and carbanions in alkylation of malonic estr, aldol condensation reactions and Claisen condensation reactions. Nomenclature, synthesis and reactions of amines. Some common monosaccharides and their reactions, disaccharides and polysaccharides. Learning
