CHEM 332 - Organic Chemistry II: Synthetic Strategies


Credits: 4
A continued examination of the structure and reactivity of small organic molecules, with an emphasis on synthetic methodology. The mechanistic background developed in CHEM 231  is expanded to include aromatic compounds, and this comprehensive knowledge if applied to the study of methods for the construction of diverse synthetic targets. Also continued from CHEM 231  is the discussion of molecular structure, which is examined from the standpoint of spectroscopic analysis. Emphasis is placed on the development of problem-solving skills and the concise communication of chemical ideas.

Prerequisite: Completion of CHEM 231  with a grade of “C” or better.

Distribution Requirements: QR, SP.
