CHE 232 - Organic Chemistry II

Credits: 4
Lecture Hours: 3
Lab Hours: 3
A continuation of CHE 231. A continued study of the structure, nomenclature, physical properties and reactivity of organic compounds. Reaction mechanisms are emphasized as an aid in predicting the path and direction of reactions. The laboratory includes preparative and mechanistic experiments and modern techniques of spectrophotometry and chromatography. Students are introduced to the chemical literature and are required to use the literature in written reports.
Prerequisite(s): CHE 231 with a grade of C or better
