CHE 202: Chemistry II w/lab – 12 week

Credits - 4

Description

CHE 202 and CHE 202L Course Descriptions:
 
The Organic Chemistry II course, including class and corequisite laboratory, is the second semester of a two-semester sequence of introductory undergraduate organic chemistry for science majors. In the class component of organic chemistry II, multistep mechanisms will be studied to understand how molecular structure enables the reactions between molecules. Synthetic schemes will be constructed using knowledge of chemical reactions and the products from those reactions. The following reaction classes will be studied in Organic Chemistry II: addition reactions, oxidation-reduction reactions, condensation reactions, cycloaddition reactions, radical reactions, and net substitution reactions at non-sp3 centers. The corequisite organic chemistry II laboratory focuses on mastery of laboratory skills using organic chemistry II principles, theories, and concepts, including use of key instrumentation.
 
The corequisite Organic Chemistry II laboratory builds upon the basic lab skills, techniques, and methods of analysis learned in the first semester of organic chemistry laboratory. In Organic Chemistry II lab, students set up and complete organic chemistry reactions as single or multi-step experiments. Reaction monitoring and processing, including product separation, purification, isolation, analysis, and lab decision-making will be stressed. Students will also use key instrumentation to analyze their experimental outcomes as appropriate such as a gas chromatograph–mass spectrometer, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer, infrared spectrometer, polarimeter, and/or UV-Visible spectrometer.
