Transfers ToUC and CSUCal-GETC Area 5A · IGETC Area 5A · CSU GE Area B1DescriptionThis course is the first semester of a one-year course in organic chemistry. Major themes include, but are not limited to, bonding, molecular structure, isomerism, conformational analysis, nomenclature, reaction mechanisms, and synthesis. Emphasis is placed on the reactions of aliphatic compounds, such as alkanes, cycloalkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alkyl halides, and alcohols. Organic chemistry literature and spectral interpretation using techniques, such as infrared and nuclear magnetic spectroscopies, are introduced to support the above topics. This course is designed for students pursuing a degree in the chemical sciences or training in chemical technology, as well as other transfer students who need organic chemistry as part of preparation for majors, such as molecular biology, premedical, predental, and pharmacy.Usually HeldMon Wed 11:10am–12:35pm, Mon Wed 3:55pm–5:20pm, Tue Thu 12:45pm–2:10pm, Tue Thu 12:55pm–2:15pm
