CHM-202 Organic Chemistry II

A continuation of CHM-201. A mechanism-based organic chemistry course designed for students that plan to transfer. Topics include: aromaticity, structure determination using IR and NMR, multistep mechanisms such as electrophilic addition to nonpolar pi bonds, nucleophilic addition to polar pi bonds, nucleophilic addition-elimination reactions, aromatic substitution, pericyclic reactions, free radicals, and polymerization. The course applies these topics to organic syntheses and biomolecules.
