    Continues the study of functional groups such as carboxylic acids and their derivatives, other carbonyl-containing compounds, amines and aromatics. Emphasizes reaction mechanisms, synthesis, and structure determination using nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy. Introduces aspects of biochemistry including the study of proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. Involves, through hands-on laboratory work, multi-step synthetic routes, chromatography, and applications of basic techniques.
