Upon completion of this course, students should be able to: 1. Determine functional groups present in organic compounds using Infrared Spectroscopy and interpret Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectra and relate the information to structural features of organic compounds. State and explain principles governing the physical and chemical properties of aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acid, carboxylic acid derivatives and amines. Write, explain and solve problems related the reaction mechanisms for nucleophilic addtition of carbonyl compounds and nucleophilic acyl substitution of carboxylic acids and their derivatives. Develop synthetic methods for preparations of various types of aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid derivatives and amines. Plan, conduct, observe and report experiments in organic chemistry

Course Description

:

This course is a continuation of the study of organic chemistry begun in Organic Chemistry I. This course begins with an introduction to the use of infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in the determination of the structures of organic molecules. The chemistry and physical properties of carbonyl containing compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and carboxylic acid derivatives forms the major part of the course. Reactions involving enolate anions as nucleophiles are discussed. The emphasis of this course is on the development of problem solving skills in the context of structure features, synthesis and mechanism of reactions of carbonyl compounds. The chemistry of amines and overview of carbohydrate are also included. Syllabus Contents 1.0 Spectroscopy of Carbon Compounds 1.1 1.2 1.3 2.0 Introduction to
