Course Description

Further study of the structures, reactions, and reaction mechanisms of organic compounds, with particular emphasis on conjugated molecules, aromatic systems, and carbonyl containing compounds and an introduction to biologically important molecules such as amino acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. PREREQUISITE: CHEM C220. COREQUISITE: CHEM C225L. Transfer Credit: CSU; UC. C-ID: CHEM 160 S.C-ID: CHEM 160 S.

Course Level Student Learning Outcome(s)

1. Interpret spectroscopic data pertaining to reactions involving dienes, aromatic molecules, and carbonyl containing systems
2. Use IUPAC nomenclature rules to provide systematic names for a chemical structure or sketch the appropriate chemical structure from a systematic name for conjugated alkenes, aromatic molecules, aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, and amides
3. Predict the expected products, including stereoisomers and regioisomers, and provide the relevant reagents for common organic reactions including dienes, aromatic compounds, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, and amides.
4. Propose reasonable reaction mechanisms for chemical reactions and explain the anticipated stereochemistry for reactions, including dienes, aromatic compounds, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, and amides.

Course Objectives

• 1. Formulate IUPAC names for aromatic and carbonyl containing compounds
• 2. Design multi-step synthetic pathways to dienes, aromatic compounds, and carbonyl containing compounds
• 3. Predict the products of and provide the reagents needed for reactions involving dienes, aromatic compounds, and carbonyl containing compounds.
