CHEM2721 — Organic Chemistry 2
CHEM 2721 - Organic Chemistry 2 CHEM 2721 - Organic Chemistry 2 5 Credits This course is a continuation of CHEM 2720 Organic Chemistry 1. Topics include amines, ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, and their derivatives. Reaction mechanisms studied include electrophilic aromatic substitution, nucleophilic aromatic substitution, nucleophilic addition and substitution at carbonyl groups, and reactions at the alpha carbon of carbonyl compounds. The course also includes application of organic chemistry related to polymers, natural products, and biochemistry. The laboratory activities cover reactions, synthesis, and the chemical and instructional identification of organic compounds. Three hours of lab per week are required. 5C/4/1/0 Prerequisite(s): CHEM 2720 with a grade of “C” or better Minnesota Transfer Curriculum (MnTC) Goal Area(s): Goal 3
