Introduction to Organic Chemistry - 108 Chem

-  Atomic structure and chemical bonding.

- Classification, nomenclature, physical properties, synthesis and reactions of the following organic classes: aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, ethers, phenols, aldehydes, keones, carboxylic acid and derivatives, and Amines.

- Structures and properties of carbohydrates, fats and oils.

Practical:

Experimental include: MP determination, recrystallization, simple distillation,                     extraction, synthesis of alkenes and unsaturation test, alkyl halide nuclear           substitution, reactions of alcohols,                phenols, aldehydes, ketones, amines, carboxylic acids (and derivatives) and         diazonium compounds, saponification,         reactions of carbohydrates.  

Aim:

Classification of organic compounds              

Nomenclature of common classes of organic compounds

Relationship between structure and physical and chemical properties

Formation and reactions of common functional groups  

Application of organic compounds
