Credits: 4

This course is designed to introduce students to the fundamentals of organic chemistry. This course emphasizes the basic building blocks of general chemistry and how they apply to organic chemistry. This course also bridges the basic building blocks of organic chemistry on basic introduction to functional group approach, with emphasis that cover the properties and reactions of hydrocarbons and their functional groups, aromatic compounds, and biological molecules. Special efforts are made in demonstrating the interrelationship between organic chemistry and other areas of science, particularly biological, health, and environmental sciences. Prerequisite CHEM 104 and 105 sequence or CHEM 107 and CHEM 108 sequence or CHEM 111. Offered Summer Only.
