    Description
    This course is the second of a two-semester sequence covering the basic principles and concepts of organic chemistry. Ethers, epoxides, sulfides, conjugated systems, UV spectroscopy, aromatic compounds, ketones and aldehydes, amines, carboxylic acids and carboxylic acid derivatives, and synthetic polymers are covered. An introduction is made to biochemical compounds: carbohydrates, nucleic acids, amino acids, peptides, proteins, and lipids. Condensation and Alpha substitution reactions are introduced. Review from the first semester of Organic Chemistry includes IR, Mass Spectroscopy, NMR Spectroscopy, kinetics, thermodynamics, and molecular orbital theory. The course is designed for chemistry, biology and pre-professional majors. (C-ID CHEM 160S) Lecture Grading: Letter CH 010A.
