CHM 210 - Organic Chemistry 1

Credit(s): 5
Lecture/Lab Contact Hours: 4, 2

This is the first course of two which constitute a year’s study of organic chemistry. Organic Chemistry 1 is required for students planning a major in chemistry and related fields. Primary lecture emphasis is placed upon the study of organic functional groups, reaction mechanisms, nomenclature, structure, stereochemistry, and spectroscopy. The laboratory emphasizes the development of techniques to run organic reactions, to isolate and characterize the products, and the use of computational molecular modeling to gain insight into the structure and reactivity of organic molecules.
