About this course
During this third and final quarter of organic chemistry, students will expand their study of functional groups to include carboxylic acids and carboxylic acid derivatives, enolates, and amines. Students will also be introduced to the chemistry of polyfunctional, biologically active molecules, such as proteins and carbohydrates. There will be continued emphasis on structure-reactivity relationships, mechanisms of reaction, and multi-step syntheses. For chemistry and other STEM majors, as well as any pre-professional students studying for careers in dentistry, medicine, pharmacy, and veterinary medicine, and for any other interested students who have mastered the prerequisites.
