Credit Hours: 4
Lecture Hours: 3
Lab Hours: 3

A one-semester course in which the chemistry of the hydrocarbons (including aromatics) and monofunctional alkyl halides, alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids (and their derivatives), and amines is surveyed. The course will conclude with an introduction to the chemistry of polyfunctional biomolecules. The laboratory will consist of the techniques used in the purification, isolation, and identification by physical properties of organic compounds and conclude with the utilization of these techniques in the preparation of organic compounds.
