CHEM 134 Organic Chemistry II

This course is the second of a two-semester sequence in Organic Chemistry for students pursuing chemistry, biochemistry, medical or engineering professions. Topics covered include nomenclature, molecular structure, reactivity and synthesis, with some extra emphasis on spectroscopy and applications to biological chemical reactions. Laboratory is required and offers more complex reactions than CHEM133 through the use of more sensitive reagents and multi-step reactions. Lecture meets three hours per week and lab meets four hours per week.
