Central concepts in this second part of the course are energy transfer, spontaneity, and change (thermochemistry, chemical equilibrium, and kinetics.) The laboratory stresses basic laboratory techniques and quantitative applications. Basic skills in mathematics and facility with algebra are required. Concurrent enrollment in calculus is recommended for students who intend to concentrate in chemistry. Prerequisite:  Chemistry 141, or its equivalent.   Class size: 28

CHEM 202   Organic Chemistry II

Emily McLaughlin

. T . Th .

10:10  - 11:30 am

RKC 115

SCI

Students study the structure and reactions of specific types of organic compounds and develop interrelationships that provide an integrated understanding of organic chemistry. The course emphasizes general principles and reaction mechanisms, but students are also expected to accumulate and utilize factual material. The laboratory is coordinated with classroom topics and should provide direct experience with many reactions and concepts. The laboratory is also intended to develop familiarity with experiment design, experimental techniques, and instrumental methods such as chromatography and spectroscopy.  Prerequisites: CHEM 201.  Class size: 30

SCI

An introduction to the chemistry of the elements, the class places emphasis on the classification of the properties and reactivity of the elements by chemical periodicity, structure, and bonding. Topics in modern inorganic chemistry to be covered include: molecular orbital and spectroscopic applications of symmetry and group theory, coordination chemistry of the transition metals, and organometallic reactions and mechanisms.

Prerequisite: Chemistry 201-202. Co-requisites: Chemistry 311 and 360, or permission of instructor.  Class size: 15

CHEM 408   Organic Synthesis

Emily McLaughlin

. T . . .

4:40  - 6:05 pm

RKC 122

SCI

2 credits   An introduction to the design and development of organic syntheses.  The starting point is a predictable design of organic structures based on the use of carbanions and other modern reactions.  The versatility of these methods is discussed, using novel ways to apply these reactions to generate elusive structures.  Variations in reactivity are discussed to illustrate the differential reactivity of similar functional groups and how these differences may be used in selectivity.  Fairly complicated syntheses are evaluated to appreciate new ideas and approaches to synthesis.  Recent papers in organic synthesis are presented by the professor, students, and visiting speakers from industry and academia. Prerequisite: Chemistry 202.  Class size: 15
