It focuses on the preparation, properties, reactions, spectroscopy (IR, HNMR, CNMR, and UV), and mass spectrometry of organic compounds, including benzene and benzene derivatives, aldehydes, ketones, dicarbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid derivatives, and amines. Applications in the biological sciences are emphasized. Biological macromolecule organic chemistry (carbohydrates, proteins, etc.) is also presented. Laboratory work includes qualitative analysis, distillation, multi- step organic synthesis, and use of analytical instrumentation (FTIR, GC, and GC-MS) for characterization of compounds.
