Course description and aims

I Organic Chemistry II is the second course of fundamental introduction to organic chemistry.
II Structures, properties, preparation, reactions, and synthetic applications of organic compounds will be discussed.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, for conjugated, aromatic, carbonyl, and amine compounds, students will be able to:
1. Understand nomenclature, structures, and properties of compounds by functional group.
2. Understand preparation methods of compounds.
3. Understand reactions and account for their mechanisms.
4. Design synthetic method using various reactions.

Keywords

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
