Credit Hours:4 Lecture Hours:3 Lab Hours:3 Contact Hour Total:96 Advanced principles of organic chemistry will be studied, including the structure, properties, and reactivity of aliphatic aromatic organic molecules; and properties and behavior or organic compounds and their derivatives. Emphasis is placed on organic synthesis and mechanisms. Includes study of covalent and ionic bonding, nomenclature, stereochemistry, structure and reactivity, reaction mechanisms, functional groups, and synthesis of simple molecules. Lab activities will reinforce fundamental principles of organic chemistry. This course is intended for students in science or pre-professional programs.
