CHEM 312: Survey of Organic Chemistry
Fundamentals of Organic Chemistry
Organic Chemistry is the study of carbon-based compounds. We begin with discussions centered around understanding different types of Organic Molecules, how we name them, and how the composition of the substance impacts the physical properties.
Reactions of Organic Compounds
With a strong understanding of the structure of Organic molecules, we can begin to learn how to alter the functional groups wihtin a compound through various chemical reactions.
Applications of Organic Chemistry
Many of these structural and reactive properties are central to biological and industrial processes that impact our day-to-day life!
